Ingredients
  

For the Waffles:

1 cup rolled oats

1 cup whole wheat flour

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon salt

1 ½ cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)

2 large eggs

¼ cup melted coconut oil (or butter)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 medium apple, peeled and diced (about 1 cup)

For the Cinnamon Syrup:

1 cup maple syrup (or honey)

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon butter (optional for richness)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Waffle Batter:

    - In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well to combine.

      Mix Wet Ingredients:

        - In another bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

          Combine Wet and Dry:

            - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened. Gently fold in the diced apple.

              Preheat Waffle Iron:

                - Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a brush of oil if needed.

                  Cook the Waffles:

                    - Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron, ensuring even distribution. Close the lid and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 5-7 minutes (depending on your waffle iron).

                      Make the Cinnamon Syrup:

                        - In a small saucepan, combine the maple syrup and ground cinnamon. (Add butter if you desire a richer flavor.) Heat over medium heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.

                          Serve:

                            - Remove the waffles from the waffle iron and serve warm, drizzled with the cinnamon syrup. Enjoy with additional diced apples or whipped cream if desired.
