For the caramelized apples:
3 tbsp. unsalted butter
6 Fuji apples -- peeled, cored and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tsp. vanilla extract
For the waffles:
3 eggs -- separated
1 3/4 cups buttermilk
8 tbsp. melted butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/3 cup sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. salt
whipped cream -- for serving
Directions:
To
make the caramelized apples, in a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 3
tablespoons butter. Add the apple slices, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon,
nutmeg and salt. Mix until apples are evenly coated. Cook about 18
minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove skillet from heat and stir in
vanilla. Set aside.
To make the waffles, in a large bowl whisk
together the egg yolks, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla. In a
medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar,
cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Whisk the flour mixture into the yolk
mixture until smooth. In another clean bowl, beat the egg whites on
medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 1 minute. Gently fold 1
cup egg whites into batter; carefully fold in remaining egg whites.
Preheat
waffle maker on medium-high. Pour 1/3 cup batter into each well of
waffle maker; close the lid. Cook 5-6 minutes. Repeat with remaining
batter. Serve waffles with caramelized apples and whipped cream.
