Ingredients

1 medium (200 g) apple, cored, unpeeled, and thinly sliced - I favor Fuji or Gala apples or substitute ½ cup of unsweetened applesauce
3 large (150 g) eggs
1 cup (250 g) unflavored Greek yogurt
½ teaspoon (½ teaspoon) cinnamon or apple pie spice
pinch (pinch) salt
1½ cups (150 g) quick oats
⅓-½ cup toasted nuts or dried fruit - (optional)

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a blender: 1 medium apple, cored, unpeeled, and thinly sliced, 3 large eggs, 1 cup unflavored Greek yogurt, ½ teaspoon cinnamon or apple pie spice, a pinch salt, and 1½ cups quick oats. Blend until smooth.
Let batter sit briefly while waffle iron preheats. (Add optional ⅓-½ cup toasted nuts or dried fruit, if using.)
Lightly spray iron; add batter, cook 2-3 minutes until golden.
Cool on rack if not eaten immediately.

Notes

A Smaller Recipe: ½ cup quick oats, half of an apple, cored, unpeeled, and sliced, ⅓ cup Greek yogurt, 1 egg, ⅛ teaspoon of cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Makes 3 4-inch waffles.

Batter too thin? Stir in 1–2 tablespoons oats and let the batter rest another minute before cooking.

Storage: Freeze waffles individually and reheat in toaster.

No waffle maker in the house? Cook batter as pancakes on a griddle.
