Ingredients
1 cup red delicious apples, coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup oat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs, separated
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1 teaspoon mint extract
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup slivered almonds
Powdered sugar
Directions
Sauteed Apples:
4 red delicious apples
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Preheat waffle iron. Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Toss chopped apple with lemon juice; set aside.
Combine dry ingredients; beat egg yolks, milk, yogurt, mint extract, brown sugar and butter. Gradually stir into the flour mixture and beat until smooth. Stir in almonds and chopped apple. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form; fold into batter. Lightly brush hot grids with shortening; bake waffles until crisp and golden. Keep finished waffles warm in oven.
Cut apples into quarters; remove cores. Thinly slice and saute in a large skillet 2-3 minutes or each side. Sprinkle brown sugar over top. Keep warm until ready to serve.
For serving, drip sugar sauce over apples; dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint sprigs if desired. Makes 4 servings.
