Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Make the waffle batter: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients, stirring until just combined (don’t overmix).
- Cook the waffles: Lightly grease the waffle iron and pour in the batter. Cook until golden brown and crisp.
- Make the churro coating: In a shallow dish, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon.
- Coat the waffles: Brush the cooked waffles with melted butter, then coat in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Notes
- For extra crispiness, let the waffles cool for a minute before brushing with butter.
- Swap chocolate sauce for caramel or dulce de leche for a fun variation.
- Works great with a Belgian waffle iron for deeper pockets to hold more toppings!
