Instructions

  1. Wash and dry the produce. Halve, core and thinly slice the apple. Toast the waffles until golden brown.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the cherry jam, honey and 1 tsp water (2 tsp for 4 servings) until smooth.
  3. Place the peanut butter and crème fraîche in a second small microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the peanut butter is softened, 15-20 seconds. Add 2 tsp sugar (4 tsp for 4 servings), 1 tbsp water (2 tbsp for 4) and a pinch of salt; whisk until smooth.
  4. Divide the waffles between plates. Drizzle with as much peanut butter glaze and jammy honey sauce as you like. Top with apple slices and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

For extra crunch, toast the waffles until deep golden brown.

If the peanut butter glaze thickens, microwave for a few seconds to loosen.

Use a tart apple like Granny Smith to balance the sweetness.

FAQ

Can I use regular waffles instead of Belgian?

Yes, any waffle works, but Belgian waffles are thicker and fluffier, giving a better texture.

Can I make the sauces ahead of time?

Absolutely! Store the peanut butter glaze and cherry sauce separately in the fridge. Reheat gently before serving.

What can I substitute for crème fraîche?

Sour cream or Greek yogurt thinned with a little milk works well.
