french toast waffles

Here is the direct link for: French Toast Waffles.

This recipe comes from Horizon Organic's website. Their tag line for this recipe is "Little ones love this crispy, chewy, sweet and yummy take on a classic breakfast treat!" My daughter, age 14, would agree with the sentiments but being little has nothing do with it!

Waffles always satisfy my love for pattern and texture. And now so do french toast waffles!

This recipe is simple and delicious. I didn't have any square-looking bread on hand, only the traditional loaf-like bread, but Texas Toast would of been perfect! I like the addition of the grated orange zest. It also would be yummy with a few sliced bananas on top of the bread before you lower the waffle iron's lid.

Tomorrow just might be another 'need for texture' day. I'll try the banana-thing with pecan halves sprinkled on top.

The red pin award for the little added 'texture' into my life!

FYI. Remember to buy some Texas Toast!

cinnamon roll waffles

Here is the direct link for: Cinnamon Roll Waffles with Cream Cheese Syrup.

I made these for the kid's last day of school yesterday. A fun treat to kick off their summer vacation. The recipe comes from The Lady Behind the Curtain blog. Sheryl, the author of this blog, says, "I've made pizza, sandwiches and muffins in a waffle maker. Why not cinnamon rolls!" So, I tried it and she was right, they are fun and tasty! Yes, this earns a red pin award!

The recipe is easy enough: one package (5 rolls) of store-bought cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting included and a waffle maker. The recipe calls for a syrup, but I didn't make that. Instead, I let the frosting come to room temperature and then simply drizzled it over the top of the hot waffles. So simple, needs nothing more.

Note to self: Remember to spray the waffle iron with oil! Secondly, this is a treat/snack item, not a breakfast substitute. These waffles are smallish in size and I can see the kids eating several of these without blinking an eye!

Happy pinning!
