   PUMPKIN APPLE WAFFLES
 
These are my favorite waffles with their combination of "baked" apples, pumpkin pie flavors and maple syrup. 

1. Lightly spray waffle iron with olive oil cooking spray and heat.

2. In medium bowl, stir together:

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour

1 tsp baking powder

¼ tsp salt

1½ tsp pumpkin pie spice

3. In a small bowl, whisk together:

¼ cup Egg Starts

2 Tbsp Wax Orchards Fruit Sweet

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 cup rice milk

4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir just until blended.

5. Stir in:

½ cup canned pumpkin

1 green apple (such as Granny Smith), peeled, cored and diced in small pieces

6. Bake waffles until golden brown, approximately 4 minutes.

7. Top with real maple syrup. Makes six or seven 4" square waffles.
