I'm typing this while listening to Spanish Polka music, by no means of my own choice. I would love to open the doors and windows on this beautiful day but the little Spanish market across the street believes today is the day to blast the polka as loudly as they can. I do have my own soundtrack going own but I can't really hear it over the um-papa um-papa. Anyhow, these are the fastest, yummiest waffles I've made yet. Husband approved too, even though he doesn't like breakfast foods. I made them for a party and someone told me they tasted like churros so I was pretty pleased with myself.
Waffles
1 3/4 cup Flour
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
2 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
3 Eggs
8 Tbsp Butter, melted (1 stick)
1 1/2 cups Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
2 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
3 Eggs
8 Tbsp Butter, melted (1 stick)
1 1/2 cups Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
Toppings:
Fruit
Maple Syrup
Butter
Powdered Sugar
Nutella
Peanut Butter
Whipped Cream
Chopped Nuts
Jam
Salsa and a fried egg (if your my dad)
Whisk together all dry ingredients. In a separate, microwave bowl melt the butter. Let cool slightly, then add in the vanilla, milk and eggs and whisk together. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just combined. Place about 1/3 cup of the mixture on the waffle iron and cook until ready. Top with your favorites and enjoy.
Notes:
- With my in-law's fancy Belgian waffle maker I get about 6 waffles out of this recipe.
- You could easily change up the flavors by taking out the cinnamon, add chocolate chips, shredded apple, rolled oats, coconut oil instead of just butter, mash up a banana and toss it in; the list is never ending.
- Keep the extras in a ziplock bag in the fridge. The next morning toss them in the toaster and they're as good as new.
- They freeze very nicely and you can pop them in the toaster as well.
- This recipe works well if you need to double, triple or even quadruple-yes, I've done a quadruple batch.
