You can use any shape of your favorite waffle maker to make these Apple Matzo Brie Waffles.
While I made my Apple Matzo Brie Waffles gluten free you can certainly make them glutenous. For more apple flavor, I recommend dipping the traditional glutenous matzos in apple juice before prepping the recipe. This way the matzos will be soft enough to make the matzo brie waffles.
Additionally, these waffles can be made savory. Simply omit the apples and substitute green onions and your favorite flavored oil. You can add sauteed mushrooms as well – just make sure the liquid has been completely absorbed.
Savory Matzo Brie Waffles would be awesome as Chicken and Waffles!
