Donut Waffle Recipe

I was recently watching a show about food mashups, and on the show one of the featured mashups was a Wonut - a cross between a donut and waffle.  Immediately after the show I started to look up donut waffle recipes.  I found several, but ended up adapting this recipe from Deliciously Yum.

The donut waffles were really yummy as is, and with the chocolate and sprinkles they were even yummier!

I made several donut waffles - decorated a few and froze the rest for the next time the urge to eat something sweet and indulgent hits.

Donut Waffles (recipe adapted from Deliciously Yum)

Ingredients:

• 2 - 2 1/2 c flour (Start with 2 cups, but if your batter is too thin, add more flour)
• 1 1/2 t baking powder
• 1/2 t salt
• 1 1/2 c sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 T vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 c milk (I used rice milk)
• 1 t vanilla extract

Directions:

• In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups flour, the baking powder, and the salt.
• In a separate medium bowl, mix together the sugar, eggs, and oil.
• Stir in eggs and milk.
• Add dry mixture and stir to combine (if batter is too thin, add 1/2 c flour).
• Pour 1/4 c batter into waffle maker and cook according to waffle maker instructions (I have a Procter Silex Belgian Waffle Maker and it took about 6-8 minutes for the waffle to turn golden brown).
• Eat as is or dip in chocolate (I used 1 c chocolate chips + 2 T flavorless coconut oil heated on high for 1 minute) and cover in sprinkles.
