These homemade Cinnamon Waffles are full of warm cinnamon flavour. They are great for breakfast, brunch, or even as a snack. They can be served with syrup or dusted with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar.
This recipe is one we keep on hand for occasions like Christmas morning. But they are also great at any other time of year.

Ingredients For Cinnamon Waffles

- Milk
- Eggs.
- Butter.
- Vanilla Extract.
- All-purpose flour.
- Sugar.
- Cinnamon.
- Baking powder.
- Sea salt.
Notes About the Ingredients
We like lots of cinnamon in our waffles, so we add three tablespoons. For a more subtle flavour, add half the amount.
There is also more sugar in this recipe than a typical waffle recipe because we find the sugar helps to balance the other flavours. We also eat these without syrup sometimes.
What Type Of Waffle Maker To Use
You don’t need a fancy waffle maker to make waffles. There are many inexpensive options available.
There are two types that we have and use regularly. The most used is our Cuisinart Waffle Maker.
We also have a stuffed waffle maker that we use when we want a thicker waffle or we are stuffing waffles with peanut butter and jelly.

How to Keep Waffles Warm
The best way to keep waffles warm is in a low oven. We heat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a cookie sheet in the oven with cooling racks on top.
Then, as the waffles are cooked, we place them on the cooling racks in the oven to keep them warm until we are ready to serve them.
How To Keep Waffles From Getting Soggy
Waffles will become soggy on the bottom when they are placed on a plate or stacked together. Steam will form under the waffles and cause them to be soggy.
To keep them crispy, place them on a cooling rack so there is airflow under them. And don’t stack them on top of each other while they are still warm.
Can Cinnamon Waffles be Frozen?
Yes, cinnamon waffles can be frozen. The best way to do this is by placing the waffles in a single layer on a large cookie sheet and placing the cookie sheet in the freezer until the waffles are frozen.
Once frozen, place the waffles in a freezer bag to store in the freezer for up to three months.
Reheating Cinnamon Waffles
Leftover waffles can be reheated in the oven or an air fryer. To make them crisp again, heat a baking tray in the oven first and place the waffles on the heated tray.
A toaster can also be used to reheat the waffles.
