- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
Waffle Batter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, avoiding overmixing to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Heat your Mickey Mouse-shaped waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring it is fully hot before cooking to get the best texture and crispiness.
- Cook Waffles: Lightly grease the waffle iron if necessary, then pour enough batter to fill the waffle mold without overflow. Close the lid and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crisp.
- Prepare Cinnamon Sugar: While waffles are cooking, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow dish or bowl.
- Coat Waffles: Once waffles are cooked, gently remove them from the waffle iron. Immediately coat each waffle generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture, ensuring an even layer that mimics the flavor of churros.
- Serve Warm: Enjoy these delightful churro Mickey waffles warm on their own or with your favorite syrup or dipping sauce for an extra treat.
Notes
- Using a non-stick waffle iron helps prevent sticking and makes cleanup easier.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond or oat milk and butter with coconut oil.
- Serve immediately for the best texture; waffles tend to lose crispiness if left standing too long.
- You can add a sprinkle of powdered sugar or drizzle with chocolate sauce for added sweetness.
- To make the cinnamon sugar coating, you can adjust the ratio to taste, increasing cinnamon for a stronger flavor.
