Directions

Preheat and grease a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions.
Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy and stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
Mix spelt flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Whisk egg yolks, soy milk, apple, and vegetable oil together in a separate bowl; pour into flour mixture. Stir to combine. Fold egg whites into batter, leaving some clumps.
Pour about 1 cup batter into waffle iron; cook until golden brown and crispy, 5 to 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

"Great recipe! I substituted applesauce for the apples, just for ease. Don't skip the oil if you use applesauce, they won't bind together properly! Best gluten free waffles I've tried so far!..." See more"

"These were good! I did not separate the eggs but incorporated the whole eggs into the batter. I loved having the tiny pieces of apple plus the addition of extra cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg by me...." See more Almond milk was used since it was was I had. The batter was made up the night before to help the morning go much easier. One could probably make up the batter with the egg yolks the previous evening and then whip the egg whites in the morning...but sounds like extra dirty dishes to me! NOTE: spelt is NOT wheat-free. It is an ancient type of wheat but with much less gluten than modern wheat."

"I used regular milk and applesauce because that's all I had on hand, but the whole family liked it. I also added a bit of nutmeg and just beat the whole eggs in to save time, so I guess I didn't real..." See morely follow the recipe to much, but as a base recipe it worked well."
