Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Begin by preheating your waffle iron to ensure it is hot and ready for the batter. This helps in getting a crispy exterior on the waffles.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk them together to ensure even distribution of all dry ingredients.
- Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until fully combined and smooth.
- Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep waffles fluffy.
- Pour Batter: Ladle or pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it evenly but leaving some space for the batter to expand during cooking.
- Cook Waffles: Close the waffle iron and cook the batter until the waffles are crisp and cooked through, usually about 3 to 5 minutes depending on your waffle iron model.
- Serve Warm: Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream for an irresistible breakfast treat.
Notes
- Ensure waffle iron is properly preheated for the best texture.
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense waffles.
- Add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter for extra texture.
- Waffles can be kept warm in a low oven if preparing multiple batches.
