Mix the flour, baking powder, and brown sugar together in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix the chia eggs and vanilla bean paste together. Add the almond milk a little at a time, stirring well, until it has combined with the chia mix.
Create a hole in the middle of the dry ingredients and slowly begin to pour in the chia mix, stirring constantly to form a batter. Be careful not to mix the batter any more than necessary – it doesn’t need to be completely smooth. Now add the melted butter and gently mix in.
Set the batter aside for ten minutes.
In the meantime, add the spiralized apple, cinnamon, and water into a large pan. Heat over medium-high heat and simmer for ten minutes until the apples are soft.
Heat up the waffle maker.
Gently mix the apples into the waffle batter and scoop around a quarter (depending on the size of your waffle maker) of the mix onto the iron. Press and cook according to your machine and preference (I chose a medium setting).
Once cooked and golden brown, remove the waffle from the machine and place it on a piece of paper towel to prevent it from becoming soggy.
Repeat the process for each waffle.
Serve with plant-based honey, syrup, or a caramel sauce.
