These carrot cake waffles are made with whole wheat flour and a good cup of shredded carrots. There’s also applesauce for a touch of sweetness, which also makes the waffles extra soft on the inside, while staying crispy on the outside.
All you need is 20 minutes of preparation and you’ll have 6 fluffy waffles for a delicious breakfast or brunch.
How to Make Carrot Cake Waffles:
Here are the steps to make whole wheat carrot cake waffles at home.
- Prepare the Batter
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, apple sauce, milk, melted butter and vanilla. Add the remaining ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Cook the Waffles
Spray the inside of the waffle maker with oil or lightly coat with butter. Turn on the waffle maker to your desired setting (I used dark). Scoop about ¾ cup of the waffle batter and spread on the waffle maker. Close and let cook for 5-6 minutes or until cooked to your liking.
- Serve
Serve with coconut whipped cream, walnuts, raisins, maple syrup or other desired toppings.
