Prepping for Breakfast!

For some reason mornings seem to be a little rushed. With trying to get Julia started with her homeschooling, I sometimes have no time to make breakfast. These two recipes seem to be the girls favorite. Once I though to treat Julia with some chocolate chips in the waffles, well big mistake! I guess my children are purist. She told me "mommy please don't put that yucky stuff in it again." I guess sometimes you just leave it the way it is~

Homemade Waffles

2 eggs

2 cupsall-purpose flour

1 3/4 cups milk

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon white sugar

4 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoonvanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat waffle iron. Beat eggs in large bowl with hand beater until fluffy. Beat in flour, milk, vegetable oil, sugar, baking powder, salt and vanilla, just until smooth.
2. Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown. Serve hot.

* I usually double the batch, and freeze the remainder of the waffles for breakfast during the week.

 Julia loved putting the Cinnamon in the packets. You just add a little hot water and Voila!
