Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 2 Eggs – beaten
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar
- 2 1/4 cup Milk
- 3/4 cup Oil
- 1/2 cup Root Beer
- 1/2 teaspoon Root Beer flavoring
Dry Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups Flour
- 2 Tablespoons Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Toppings
- Syrup
- Whipped Cream
- Maraschino Cherries
Instructions
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine beaten eggs, sugar, milk, oil, root beer, and root beer flavoring. Stir well until fully blended.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening and seasonings.
- Make Batter: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring after each addition until blended. The batter may remain slightly lumpy, which is normal.
- Preheat Waffle Maker: Turn on your waffle maker and let it heat according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure even cooking.
- Cook Waffles: Pour about 3/4 cup of batter onto the preheated waffle maker at a time. Cook until waffles are golden and crisp. Repeat until all batter is used, stacking waffles as you go.
- Butter and Serve: Butter each waffle as it comes off the waffle maker to add richness and moisture.
- Garnish and Enjoy: Top the waffles with syrup, a generous dollop of whipped cream, and a maraschino cherry. Serve immediately and enjoy your root beer float inspired waffles!
Notes
- The batter can be slightly lumpy; do not overmix to keep waffles light and fluffy.
- If you don’t have root beer flavoring, you can increase the root beer quantity slightly for a stronger flavor.
- For crispier waffles, let them cool on a wire rack rather than stacking immediately.
- These waffles are great as a dessert or a whimsical breakfast treat.
