Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Cinnamon Swirl:
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • For the Glaze:
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon for the swirl.
  6. To assemble the waffles: Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the preheated waffle iron. Dollop spoonfuls of the cinnamon swirl mixture onto the batter. Gently spread it a bit with a spoon or knife, then top with another 1/4 cup of batter, covering the swirl mixture.
  7. Close the waffle iron and cook for about 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. While the waffles cook, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon of milk, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Add more milk a teaspoon at a time if needed to reach desired drizzling consistency.
  9. Carefully remove the waffle from the iron and place it on a plate. Drizzle with the glaze.
  10. Repeat with the remaining batter and cinnamon swirl mixture. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Ensure your butter for the swirl is softened, not melted, for best results.
  • Adjust the amount of milk in the glaze to achieve your preferred thickness.
