Cinnamon Waffles
Cinnamon waffles are easy to make and perfectly spiced. Enjoy them any morning or on a breakfast board with fresh fruit and whipped cinnamon butter.
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder aluminum free
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 teaspoons cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup plain whole milk yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup plus more, for serving
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
For the Whipped Cinnamon Butter
- 4 tablespoons salted butter softened to room temperature
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg, then whisk in the sugar.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together milk, yogurt, eggs, maple syrup and vanilla until smooth.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, folding with a rubber spatula until no streaks of flour remain. Whisk in melted butter.
- Ladle in enough waffle batter to fill the waffle iron almost to the edges (about heaping ¼ cup), and close the iron. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, 6-8 minutes, then remove the waffles to a plate and repeat with remaining batter. Makes 12-15 waffles.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, sugar and cinnamon. Dollop on top of the hot waffles and top with fresh fruit, if desired.
