Cinnamon Waffles with Cinnamon Whipped Cream: A Delightful Breakfast Treat
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoon light brown sugar
- 2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 3 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
1. Make Cinnamon Whipped Cream: In a bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Using a stand mixer or electric whisk, whip the ingredients together until stiff peaks form. Store the cinnamon whipped cream in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
2. Preheat Waffle Iron: Turn your waffle iron to its maximum heat setting and let it preheat while you prepare the waffle batter.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Add Dry Ingredients: To the wet ingredients, add the granulated sugar, light brown sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk the mixture until it’s smooth and free of any lumps.
5. Brush Waffle Iron: Melt a small amount of extra butter and use a pastry brush to lightly coat the preheated waffle iron. This helps create a deliciously crispy exterior on the cinnamon waffles.
6. Cook Waffles: Pour the waffle batter onto the preheated waffle iron, just enough to spread to the edges without overfilling. Cook the waffles according to your appliance’s instructions until they’re golden brown and crispy.
7. Serve: Serve the hot, freshly baked cinnamon waffles topped with the creamy cinnamon whipped cream and a drizzle of maple syrup for the perfect sweet and indulgent breakfast.
Notes
To ensure your cinnamon waffles turn out perfectly every time, consider the following tips:
Choosing the Right Waffle Iron: Invest in a high-quality waffle iron that evenly cooks and produces crisp, golden-brown waffles. Look for features like adjustable temperature settings and easy-to-clean nonstick plates.
Adjusting Texture and Crispiness: To achieve your desired texture, experiment with the batter consistency. For fluffier waffles, separate the egg whites and whip them into stiff peaks before folding them into the batter. For a crispier exterior, let the batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking.
Storing and Reheating Leftover Waffles: If you have any cinnamon waffles left over, let them cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop them in the toaster or oven until warm and crispy.
