Cinnamon Crisp Chips

So on Monday I shared that delicious Apple Pie Dip.  If you noticed in one of the pictures there was a super good looking cinnamon crusted chip sitting there waiting to scoop up some of that dip!  Well, these are those chips!

I mean seriously, does something dipped in butter & then coated in cinnamon & sugar need a whole lot of words to tell you how good it is?  It's good.  Nothing ever ends badly that starts with melted butter, cinnamon & sugar!

CINNAMON CRISP CHIPS 
YIELD: serves 8-10

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 whole wheat tortillas
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

COOKING DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar & cinnamon.
2. Coat the tortillas in melted butter, making sure to evenly coat both sides. Lay flat on a baking sheet. Sprinkle each tortilla generously with the cinnamon sugar, flip & then sprinkle second side with cinnamon sugar.
3. Bake for 15 minutes or until very crispy. Allow to cool completely.
4. Once cooled, break into pieces and use as scoops for Apple Pie Dip. Or just eat as a snack!

Apple Pie Stuffed Cinnamon Sugar Waffles #WaffleWednesdays

Welcome to #WaffleWednesdays y'all!!  I have partnered with Kellogg's to be a Chief Waffle Officer which means I will be sharing Eggo waffle recipes here every Wednesday until the end of October!!  But don't expect eight weeks of boring, waffle-filled breakfasts!  We're thinking outside of the box & cooking up your favorite desserts, game day snacks & holiday treats all using waffles!!

So last week I shared with y'all a super yummy Mini Pumpkin Cheesecake that would be perfect for Thanksgiving dessert!  Well I just couldn't move away from the sweets & I've got another delicious dessert for you today!

I've taken the classic apple pie and turned it into golden waffle goodness.  Top these Apple Pie Stuffed Cinnamon Sugar Waffles with a scoop of Breyer's Ice Cream and you've got all of the flavors of the classic American dessert without all the work!

And technically, since it's waffles & fruit, no one would fault you at all if you ate it for breakfast! ;)

APPLE PIE STUFFED CINNAMON SUGAR WAFFLES 
YIELD: serves 1

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 Eggo Thick & Fluffy Cinnamon Brown Sugar Waffles
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 3/4 cup Apple Pie Dip
• 1 scoop of your favorite Breyer's Ice Cream

COOKING DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together the sugar & cinnamon.
2. Toast the waffles according to the package directions. Once toasted, dip the waffles into the melted butter, being sure to evenly coat both side. Place the waffles on a baking sheet. Generously sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over one side of the waffles. Flip to the other side & then sprinkle on more of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
3. Bake the waffles for 4 minutes, flip, and then bake for 3-4 additional minutes {you want the waffles to crisp up a little but still have some of the soft, melted butter goodness}
4. Place on waffle on a serving plate. Top the waffle with the apple pie dip. Top with the remaining waffle to make a sandwich. Serve warm topped with a scoop of the Breyer's Ice Cream!

Up first is this Apple Pie Dip!  ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!  Seriously, so good!  And it honestly tasted like apple pie.  I served it with some Cinnamon Crisp Chips and it was ridiculous good.  It would also be delicious on top of some vanilla ice cream!   Perfect dessert for Thanksgiving!
