What you'll need

Preparation

1 To make the Caramelized Apples, in a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat; stir in sugar. Add apples; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Add cream and cinnamon; simmer, stirring, until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Keep warm.
2 To make the Buttermilk Waffles, in a large bowl, whisk eggs, buttermilk, butter and vanilla. In separate bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; stir into egg mixture just until combined. Let stand for 5 minutes.
3 Heat waffle iron; grease well. Using about ½ cup (125 mL) batter per waffle, pour onto waffle iron. Close lid and cook until golden and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing pan between each waffle.
4 Test Kitchen Tip:
• Place waffles in single layer on wire rack-lined baking sheet and keep warm in preheated 200°F (100°C) oven.
