Chai Spiced Apple Waffles are filled with little apple bites and wonderful chai spice for a wonderful way to wake up in the morning.
My middle child is obsessed with homemade waffles. He always asks for them but when we moved this last time I got rid of the waffle iron I’d had since we got married. It was in desperate need of being replaced!
So, when Nordicware sent me their stove top waffle iron I was really excited. I love it’s low profile and that it fits better in my cupboards. It’s also really simple to use but I’ll walk you through the process and share some tips I’ve found to get those nice and crisp waffles.
What is chai spice?
Chai spice is typically made up of a blend of cardamom, cinnamon, and ginger that smells absolutely amazing. We get Chai from India (Chai rhymes with pie) and its a very earthy blend. I got my Chai, actually Vanilla Chai, from The Spice House.
How to use the Nordicware stove top waffle iron:
- Make sure your waffle mixture is all ready to go. You will use about 1/2 cup waffle batter per waffle section.
- Lightly brush both sides of the inside of the pan with canola oil. Use a pastry brush or one of those canisters that sprays oil instead of cooking spray.
- Begin heating one side of the waffle iron over medium heat for about 3 minutes. Flip the iron to being heating the other side.
- Open the iron and pour about 1/2 cup of batter into each waffle well.
- Close the iron and set a timer for 2 minutes. When the timer runs out, carefully flip the waffle and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
