Notes

To Store:  Store leftover waffles in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. To reheat, pop them in the toaster.
 
To Freeze: Allow waffles to cool completely and store them in a freezer safe ziplock bag or container.  Freeze waffles for up to 3 months.  To reheat, allow them to come to room temperature and pop them in the toaster.

 

Want these waffles even faster?

Use apple sauce in place of the mashed apples for the batter. Simply mix all the seasoning into the apple sauce then add it to the batter.
