Fall Recipes ... Candy Corn Waffles

A while back I did the Watermelon Waffles for the boys.  Then last week Caden asked for waffles for dinner and I thought well it would be fun to try out the Candy Corn Waffle recipe from the same lady on Random Thoughts of a SUPERMOM.  Now don't worry there are no candy corn candies in this recipe but they sure are cute and resemble the candy!  For breakfast or for dinner that is made up of breakfast treats this is the perfect recipe.

I started with the perfect waffle recipe (you could use store bought but I rather make my own).

INGREDIENTS:

2 eggs 2 cups all-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 teaspoon vanilla 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.

Here is the how to make the Candy Corn Waffles:

For the Candy Corn look I had to doctor up the batter a little bit so between the step 1 and 2 of the directions.  I separated the batter into 3 bowls (one small, medium and large).  You will need the small bowl to be the regular batter.  The medium size bowl you will add yellow food coloring to the batter.  I like to use food coloring gel.  The large size bowl with the most of the batter you need to add yellow and red food coloring to make orange.  

Once your waffle maker is warmed up spray it with cooking spray.  Then make a small circle in the middle of the white batter, then add a outer ring of yellow and finish with orange on the outer ring.  Cook according to your waffle maker.  Break into fourth and tada you have candy corn shaped waffles!

Happy Monday everyone, hope you had a wonderful weekend.
