Instructions
Preheat waffle maker and grease lightly with oil or butter, if required. Preheat oven to 150C/300F and line a baking tray.
Place flour, sugar, spices, baking powder and salt into a large bowl and stir until combined.
Place vanilla extract, milk, vegetable oil and eggs into a jug and beat lightly with a fork to combine.
Pour wet ingredients over dry and stir until just combined.
Add in the dried apple chunks and stir until they're covered in batter. Don't beat the batter, just stir until there are no large lumps!
Cook in batches, placing 1/3 cup of batter into each section of waffle maker. Cook as per manufacturer's instructions - this was 4 minutes for my machine.
Place cooked waffles onto lined baking tray and place in the oven to keep warm whilst you make the remaining waffles.
Once all waffles are cooked, place applesauce and cinnamon into a small bowl and mix until well combined.
Serve waffles with the applesauce and extra apple rings, if desired.
