These waffles are full of warm spices. Serve with monk fruit maple syrup or an eggnog flavored sweet custard sauce (see related recipe and add a good pinch of nutmeg). Cinnamon sugar "apple" compote goes well too (see related recipe).

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a small blender or whisk together by hand. Pour half the batter into a preheated waffle iron and cook until little to no steam is escaping, about 3-5 minutes.

Notes

Daiya brand cheese is a plant-based alternative that will melt and crisp similarly to traditional dairy-based cheese. It is slightly higher in carbohydrate than dairy-based cheese as it does contain some tapioca starch as well as chickpea and potato proteins. As such, this item should be used as an occasional treat only.
