Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 4 large eggs (lightly beaten)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup + 1 tablespoon flour
Optional Toppings:
- Whipped Cream
- dulce de Leche
- Chocolate Topping
- sliced strawberries
Instructions
- Combine sugar and cinnamon in a shallow dish and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine water, butter, sugar, and salt. Heat on medium heat just until butter is melted.
- Remove from heat and add flour. Stir with a wooden spoon until smooth and a dough forms.
- Return to the stovetop and heat on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, fold and press the dough around until flour starts coming off the dough to the sides of the pan. The dough should be smooth and pliable.
- Remove from heat and turn the dough out into a mixing bowl and cool for about 3-5 minutes.
- When dough has cooled a little, use a hand mixer to mix in eggs and vanilla until smooth. It should be a very thick batter consistency at this point. Not quite enough to hold its shape but thick enough to scoop onto a spoon without falling off.
- Spray the waffle iron with cooking spray and place about 1/4 cup of batter onto the waffle iron.
- Close the iron and allow to cook a full cycle until the light turns off (my waffle iron takes 3-4 minutes for a typical cycle).
- Remove waffle from the waffle iron and immediately coat in cinnamon sugar mix.
- Top with your favorite toppings and serve!
