Brown Sugar & Cinnamon Waffles

Directions

1. 1
   1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions. (Note: I have a two-square iron. I preheat and set it atop a baking sheet lined with wax paper and a paper towel to catch any batter if you over pour.)
2. 2
   2. In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Place butter in microwave and heat, on 20 second intervals until completely melted.
3. 3
   3. Add eggs, milk, and vanilla to dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. After butter has cooled slightly, add that and mix until batter is fully incorporated. Try not to over mix!
4. 4
   4. Once your waffle iron is hot, spray with non-stick spray and ladle batter into iron. (I usually use a little over one ladle to fully cover all the squares with minimal loss of batter.) Cook as per your manufacturer's instructions. I suggest about 5-7 minutes.
5. 5
   This makes a double batch of waffles, about one dozen. I like to make double batches and freeze most of them for quick morning meals. (Note: If you plan on making some to freeze, sometimes it's best to not cook them until crisp so that they get crispy when you reheat.)

   To reheat: Defrost waffles for a minute or two then toast in toaster.
