Valentine’s Day Waffles
Whole Wheat Waffles
Topped with Orange-infused Whipped Cream & a Strawberry Cinnamon Sauce
To celebrate Valentine’s Day, I made my baby a waffle feast. It included…
Heart-shaped Whole Wheat Waffles
Orange-infused Whip Cream
Strawberry Cinnamon Honey Syrup
Sounds fancy but is honestly so simple to make.
For the Waffles…
I used a basic recipe from Martha Stewart… you can find it here.
I used whole wheat flour instead of white flour. I also added cinnamon and ginger powder.
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
Half a stick of unsalted butter, melted
1/2 Tsp of Cinnamon Powder
1/4 Tsp of Ginger Powder
Combine in a stand mixer or use a hand mixer on low until lumps are gone.
Cook your batter into waffles or pancakes.
For the Whipped Cream…
2 cups of Heavy Cream + 2 TBLS of Confectioner Sugar + 2 TSP of Orange Extract
Usually this would require Vanilla Extract but the Orange really made this…EXTRA!
Whip on High for several minutes in a stand mixer or using a hand mixer until it becomes a big cloud of delicious whipped cream.
*Tip- If you freeze a bowl that you will make your whipped cream in, it will already be cold when whipped.
For the Syrup…
Chop up a handful of Strawberries. You can also use frozen fruit.
Combine Strawberries, a 1/4 Cup of Water, and 1 TBLS of Honey, and a few shakes of Cinnamon in a sauce pan.
Cook on medium-low until syrup is combined.
