Sweet & Savoury Sausage & Apple Waffle
First off, I just want to give a BIG shout out and thanks to Kim from Feed Me, Seymour for extending the invitation to join all these wonderful food bloggers in the Waffle Week Waffle Round-Up of 2015. Secondly, I want to thank you all for your patience! Since Hazel’s arrival a week and a half ago, our home has been a little crazy busy, then school started this week… and all that comes with that… it’s been CRAZY! I’m hoping to get back on track shortly, but in the meantime, I still wanted to participate in this AMAZING round up of deliciousness! And perfect for weekend morning breakfasts for you and your family!
The Ingredients:
- 4 mild italian sausages
- 1 granny smith apple, sliced thinly
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 small white onion, diced
- 1/4 cup water (optional)
- 2-3 tsp fresh thyme
- Remove sausage from the casings. Cook crumbled sausage in a pan until cooked all the way through. Once cooked through, remove the sausage with a slotted spoon.
- Add unsalted butter to pan and melt. Add onions and cook until translucent. Add apple and cook until soft. If you find your pan getting a little dry, add water to help soften the apples.
- Once apples are cooked through and soft, add thyme & cooked sausage. Turn to low and keep warm while you make your waffles. If it’s a little dry when you’re ready to serve, add a little more butter.
Note: my focus for this recipe was really about the topping. I used a basic waffle recipe that created fluffy and light waffles, perfect to balance out the flavours of the apples & sausage. You can find a basic waffle recipe here: Simple Waffles from Scratch by The Food Network. - Once your waffles are ready, serve the sausage mixture warm on top. Serve alone, add an extra sprinkle of thyme or even a slice of brie cheese!!

Yum! These look amazing! I love the sausage and apple combo. It’s one of my favorite flavors!
This sounds wonderful! Apples and sausage are always such a great pairing and I would gladly eat those waffles for any meal of the day!
A savory waffle, I like that idea! Sounds yummy!
Oh my goodness, those waffles sound so good!
That last shot was amazing! 🙂 I love the idea of the combination of the sausage and apples!
Apples and sausage just go so well together. Also I am jealous of your waffle iron shape. So pretty.
These waffles sound so much more delicious than straight up sugary waffles in the morning!
These sound so good! The older I get the more I like the sweet with savory. Yum!

Apples and pork are such a classic combination, I like that you chose a sausage for your waffles topping creation. Perfect sweet and savory breakfast or dinner!
