Ingredients
  

For the Waffle Batter
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour Can substitute with gluten-free flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder Ensure freshness for best results
  • 1 cup Sugar Brown sugar can be used for deeper flavor
  • 1 tsp Salt Adjust to personal taste
  • 1 tbsp Cinnamon Increase or decrease based on preference
  • 2 Eggs Can swap with flax eggs for vegan option
  • 1 cup Milk Use plant-based milk for vegan twist
  • 1/2 cup Butter Brush onto waffles before coating; coconut oil is a good substitute
For the Chocolate Dip
  • 4 oz Mexican chocolate Bittersweet chocolate with a hint of cinnamon is a great alternative
  • 1/2 cup Heavy cream Coconut cream makes it dairy-free

Equipment

  • waffle iron
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Whisk
  • Double boiler

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then mix in the milk and melted butter until well combined. Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix.
  2. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring it reaches a medium to high heat. For added crispiness, brush the cooking surface with melted butter.
  3. Pour enough batter into the preheated waffle iron to cover the surface without overflowing—about ¾ cup, depending on your iron's size. Close the lid and cook for 5-7 minutes or until the waffles turn golden brown and crisp.
  4. Once the waffles are done, carefully remove them from the waffle iron and brush both sides generously with melted butter while they're still hot. Immediately dust them with cinnamon sugar.
  5. In a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped Mexican chocolate and heavy cream. Heat gently, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.
  6. Serve the warm churro waffles alongside the chocolate dip, garnishing with extra cinnamon sugar.

Notes

Keep the batter slightly lumpy for fluffy, airy churro waffles. Store cooked churro waffles on a wire rack in a warm oven to stay crispy before serving.
