What is a Cinnamon Waffle?

A cinnamon waffle is a breakfast pastry that typically consists of a waffle ironed batter that is then coated in a mix of cinnamon and sugar. The mixture is then poured into the waffle iron and cooked. The waffles are then served with syrup on the side.

A cinnamon waffle is also a dessert that typically only consists of two ingredients – a waffle iron and syrup ( like molasses). Some may question if a cinnamon waffle is even a real food or if it should be called a ‘dessert.’

The term breakfast pastry tends to raise eyebrows among those who are on diets or restricted calories; however, this type of breakfast pastry can be enjoyed by anyone.

How to make Cinnamon Waffles?

Cinnamon waffles are a delicious and easy way to get your morning breakfast fix. This recipe is simple to follow, and it will result in waffles that are light and fluffy.

The Cinnamon Waffle Ingredients are:

1 3/4 cups milk
1 Tsp vanilla
1/2 cup oil
2 cups flour
4 Tsp baking powder
2 eggs
2 Tbsp sugar
1/2 Tsp salt
2 Tsp cinnamon

To make the flour mixture, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the milk, oil, vanilla, and eggs to a medium bowl and whisk together. Dry ingredients should be combined with wet ingredients. Leave a few small lumps (a few are fine). Give it five minutes to rest.

You can use any type of batter for these waffles, but we recommend using a mix of all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon. Once you have the batter prepared, it’s time to set the waffle iron to the proper temperature. We recommend using a temperature of between 200 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit for perfect results.

Once your waffle iron is heated, add 1/2 cup of oil to the cooking surface and wait for it to heat up before adding your batter. Be sure to flip your waffles halfway through cooking so that they cook evenly on both sides.

Another Type of Cinnammon Waffle

Cinnamon waffles are a type of Belgian waffle that is made with cinnamon and sugar. They are often served with syrup or cream, and can be a breakfast or dessert.

Next up, we have Jaffles! These are authentic Belgian-style waffles made from yeast dough (yeast is what gives your bread its rise). The process is similar to making brioche but if you’re not familiar with any of that, don’t worry!

The process is incredibly simple, and you’re probably already familiar with the ingredients, so I’ll give a quick rundown of what you’ll need:

-Measuring spoons
-Measuring cups
-A digital kitchen scale

These are extremely important for baking any sort of bread or pastry. The measurements are in grams, since we’re dealing with yeast dough (which is basically flour + water) which has to be measured frequently as it rises. You can use either a tablespoon or a teaspoon measure (as long as it’s 5 milliliters / 1 fluid ounce). If your Kitchen aid has an imperial measures setting, this is how the recipe is written. If not, just remember that anything less than 2 tablespoons = 1½ teaspoons = 15 grams.

This is how you make them:

1. Beat the egg with an electric beater until fluffy.
2. Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl, and add the melted butter to it.
3. Add the flour and milk in two batches, and mix everything well until you get a smooth batter.
4. Whisk the eggs with a handheld electric mixer, then add them to the batter in two batches after each addition.
5. Finally, whisk once again before using your waffle iron.

Conclusion

When it comes to breakfast, nothing beats a delicious cinnamon waffle. They are simple to make and even easier to love, making them the perfect choice for a quick and easy meal any time of day.

Whether you’re in the mood for something sweet or savory, there is definitely no wrong way to enjoy a Cinnamon waffle!
