How to Prepare Apple Waffles [Vegan]

Pour the almond or oat milk into a small bowl and add the apple cider vinegar. Stir and set to one side.
Place the apples in a saucepan with the water and vanilla extract. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the apples have softened. Stir occasionally to prevent them from sticking to the base of the pan.
Once the apples have cooked, put them in a blender with the almond/oat milk mixture and the oats, coconut oil and baking powder. Then blend until the batter is smooth.
Heat the waffle iron and lightly brush it with coconut oil. Carefully spoon the waffle mix onto the hot waffle iron, spreading it out evenly. Close the lid and cook for 8 minutes. After 8 minutes, check the waffles and, if not completely golden, cook for a further 2 minutes.
Once the apple waffles are ready, place them on the table and let everyone help themselves to berries, orange slices, a drizzle of melted vegan chocolate or maple syrup, chocolate spread and vegan whipped cream.
