One of my favorite things to do in the kitchen is to utilize leftovers in a new way. This recipe is made by using leftover apple crisp, paired with an oat flour-based waffle.

Grandpa came home from the store the other day with 2 bags of apples. Oh mercy, what am I to do with two bags of apples? He’s no dummy, he had a motive in mind when he brought those apples home: apple crisp. I told him he has the most ungodliest ideas. The last thing I want to be doing is peeling and slicing apples. But, I made it anyway. Naturally we ate more than half the pan in 1 sitting. I used some of the leftovers in an oat flour-based waffle recipe.

The oat flour waffle was adapted from this recipe and I used this recipe to make the apple crisp (although I adapted it to make it gluten free making this whole recipe gluten free).

This gluten free apple crisp waffle is sinful.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups oat flour (blend oats in blender until they make a fine powder)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp coconut sugar (or maple syrup)
3/4 cup room temperature oat milk (or milk of choice)
1/4 cup + 1 tbsp melted coconut oil
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 to 2 cups apple crisp (I didn’t measure, I just went for it)

Let’s Get Started

In a medium bowl, whisk oat flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and coconut sugar.
In a separate bowl, whisk oat milk, melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla.
Pour wet ingredients in to dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
Preheat and lightly grease your Waffleye waffle maker.
After 10 minutes, swirl the batter one more time. Scoop 3/4 cup batter onto your heated waffle maker and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it stops steaming.
Top with butter and syrup and enjoy!
