Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup crushed Froot Loop cereal
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron: Turn on your waffle iron and allow it to heat fully while you prepare the batter to ensure even cooking.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, crushed Froot Loop cereal, salt, baking powder, and sugar. Stir until thoroughly mixed.
- Whisk wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
- Combine wet and dry mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient bowl and gently fold them together until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep waffles tender.
- Cook the waffles: Spoon approximately 1/4 cup of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, usually about 3-5 minutes depending on your iron.
- Serve and enjoy: Carefully remove the waffles, serve warm. Optionally, top with syrup, fresh fruit, or additional crushed Froot Loops for extra crunch and color.
Notes
- You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free variation.
- For crispier waffles, add a little extra melted butter or oil to the batter.
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense waffles; a few lumps are fine.
- Crushing the cereal finely will distribute the flavor and color more evenly.
- Adjust cooking time based on your waffle iron’s heat and thickness preference.
