Carrot Cake Waffles and Cream Cheese Syrup




These turned out super yummy and weren't TOO much work for a quick breakfast.  I hate spending too much time cooking on Sunday morning.  I want to spend more time eating :)  Anyways, these turned out delicious and made the house smell really good.  I grated my carrot the night before to make it a little faster in the morning.

Carrot Cake Waffles
Yields: about 4 double waffles
Waffle Ingredients:

1 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons sugar

¾ teaspoons baking soda

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

½ teaspoon allspice

½ cup sour cream
½ cup milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup raisins

1 cup grated carrots


Directions:
1. Combine the flour, salt, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. 

2. Mix together the sour cream, milk, egg, butter and vanilla extract. 

3. Stir the wet and dry ingredients together.  4. Add carrots and raisins. Stir gently to combine. 

5. Spread 1/3 cup or so of batter onto the waffle iron and bake until the waffle is done, usually 3 to 5 minutes, depending on your iron. Spray iron with cooking spray between waffles as needed.
