Ingredients
Scale
Waffle Batter:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon Whipped Cream:
- 1 cup heavy cream, chilled
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the waffle batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. In another bowl, combine milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- Cook waffles: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease the iron with butter or non-stick spray. Pour enough batter onto the iron to fill the surface without overflowing. Close the lid and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes (time may vary based on your waffle iron). Repeat until all batter is used.
- Make cinnamon whipped cream: In a chilled bowl, add the heavy cream, sugar, and cinnamon. Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat, or the cream will become grainy.
- Serve: Plate the warm waffles and generously dollop the cinnamon whipped cream on top. Optionally, sprinkle a little extra cinnamon or drizzle with maple syrup for added flavor. Enjoy immediately!
Notes
- For crispy waffles, do not open the waffle iron while cooking until the timer goes off.
- You can adjust the cinnamon amount in both the batter and whipped cream to your taste preference.
- If you do not have a waffle iron, you can use a griddle to make pancake-style cinnamon cakes instead.
- Use cold heavy cream straight from the fridge to help it whip better and faster.
- Store leftover whipped cream in the refrigerator and re-whip slightly before serving if it starts to separate.
