We had the pleasure of having my nephew stay the night. One of my favorite things to do when he stays is make breakfast with his help. Today we made homemade waffles.

The kids can also help with this part.

Follow manufacture’s directions as to how much batter to fill the hot waffle iron with. My iron used about 2/3 cup but every iron is different.

Cook for as long as you like and again stick with the directions for your iron.

Enjoy!
