My kids absolutely love to wake up to the smell of fresh waffles on the griddle. I believe that if I gave them their way, I would be preparing a batch every morning. Knowing this, my wonderful husband gave me a restaurant quality waffle iron for Christmas that I absolutely LOVE and it makes baking waffles so much fun! Ulterior motive?? Maybe!
The other morning the breakfast fixins' were pretty slim (I had neglected to make it to the store) and I knew that I would have my hands full with grumpy kiddos if I didn't figure out breakfast quick. I rapidly searched All Recipes for a waffle recipe with ingredients I had on hand. I liked this particular recipe because the batter will keep in the fridge for up to a week!
These were light and fluffy and absolutely wonderful!! They had just the perfect hint of cinnamon flavor and I'm thinking I just might add a touch of nutmeg to them next time too. I can't wait to prepare these again and serve with some fresh fruit Yummo!
From the heart of my kitchen to yours, may your experience be fun and the food always flavorful. Enjoy!
Cinnamon Waffles
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons white sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Preheat waffle iron. Beat eggs in large bowl with hand beater until fluffy. Beat in flour, milk, vegetable oil, sugar, baking powder, salt and vanilla, just until smooth.
Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown. Serve hot.
This batter can be stored in the fridge, covered, for up to a week. Whisk well before using again.

Oh no you di'nt! I absolutely love waffles! And adding cinnamon sounds even more delish!
With cinnamon and vanilla in your batter, this is like a big breakfast cookie! How tasty is that?

I don't mind ulterior motives for gifts as long as they don't involve house CLEANING.
I've made cinnamon pancakes before, but never waffles. Sounds great!
LOL, gotta love those "double" gifts! :)
What time's breakfast? I'll be over for waffles.
Btw, yes, definitely add some nutmeg....sounds good!

Hi Christy - Thanks so much for stopping by to visit my blog. I'm very happy to have found you too.
You've inspired me to get my waffle iron out of the cupboard and fire it up. Your cinnamon waffles look heavenly.
Just stopping by from SITS! LOVE your blog. I love to cook and try new recipes. I know I will be back again soon to visit!
Christy, everything okay? Hope so! You haven't posted in a while....just wanted to make certain that it was just a busy summer keeping you away!
Take care!
