Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup of crushed Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 4 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups of milk
- 1/3 cup of melted butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and combine dry ingredients: Preheat your waffle iron to ensure it’s hot and ready. In a large bowl, add the all-purpose flour, crushed Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, salt, baking powder, and sugar. Whisk these dry ingredients thoroughly to distribute everything evenly.
- Mix wet ingredients and combine: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract, if using. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl and gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the waffles tender.
- Cook the waffles: Pour approximately ¼ cup of the waffle batter onto the preheated waffle iron. Cook the waffle until it turns golden brown and crispy on the outside—this typically takes a few minutes depending on your waffle maker. Carefully remove and repeat with the remaining batter until all waffles are cooked.
Notes
- For extra crunch, add more crushed cereal on top of the batter before cooking each waffle.
- Adjust the milk quantity slightly if the batter seems too thick or thin for your waffle iron.
- Serve waffles with syrup, fresh fruit, or a dusting of powdered sugar for added flavor.
- Leftover waffles can be frozen and reheated in a toaster for a quick breakfast.
