Ingredients

  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 2 c. flour
  • 1/4 c. powdered sugar
  • 4 t. baking powder
  • 3/4 t. baking soda
  • 1/2 t. salt
  • Wet Ingredients:
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 c. milk
  • 1/4 c. melted butter
  • 1 1/2 t. vanilla extract
  • Sugar Mixture:
  • 1 c. white granular sugar
  • 1/4 c. ceylon cinnamon
  • For Frying:
  • 1 1/2 c. fresh canola oil
  • Whipped Cream:
  • 2 c. cream
  • 1-2 t. ground nutmeg
  • Toppings:
  • Chopped toasted walnuts
  • Dulce de leche nestle product, or homemade if desired. We loved the nestle squeezable brand.
  • You will also need pan spray for you waffle iron

Instructions

To make the waffle batter:

  • Place all the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Place all the wet ingredients in a bowl (besides the melted butter) and whisk well. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and mix until they are just incorporated, do not over mix. Stir in the melted butter.
  • Heat the waffle iron and spray with pan spray. Pour 1/2 c. batter into the waffle maker (for Texas-style waffles, your waffle iron may need more), use a small spatula to get the batter into small curves of the shape. Close the waffle iron and cook for about 2 minutes. Every waffle iron is different so you may need to adjust the timing. Place each completed churro waffle on paper towels to cool. Repeat.

To Make the Nutmeg Whipped Cream:

  • In a bowl beat 2 cups of heavy cream with beaters until peaks form. Sprinkle in nutmeg. Chill until time for plating the waffles.

To Fry the Waffles:

  • In a non-stick skillet heat about 1-2 c. oil to 325-340 degrees. Fry each waffle 30 seconds on each side and immediately place it into the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Spoon cinnamon sugar into the waffle holes, flip and repeat. Shake well to remove excess.
  • Place on plates and top with nutmeg whipped cream, toasted walnuts, and a drizzle of dulce de leche. Serve hot!
