Cinnamon Roll Waffles

Well, here is another dessert for you!  Haha 
I saw these on Pinterest a while ago, and they seemed way too easy - so I had to try them out for myself!

Okay, so here it is:

Get a couple cans of refrigerated cinnamon rolls (in the tube).  Spray your waffle iron and plop a cinnamon roll in each square.  Smash the lid down - slowly - wait a few seconds - ta da!! 

Seriously, you don't have to cook them very long.  At first I cooked them as long as I would a waffle, and they were a little crunchy!  Ooops!  :)

I squeezed the frosting into a little condiment bottle, and heated it up in the microwave.  Then, just drizzle onto the waffles.

I loved these because they weren't as messy as cinnamon rolls, or waffles either.  They were more like a big cookie you could hold with your hands.  Yum!!

PROTEIN FORTIFIED WHOLE WHEAT WAFFLES

Okay, I know the title sounds healthy, and healthy usually means disgusting. I make these waffles all the time & my kids LOVE them! (they don't even know they're not from a Bisquick box)
I make a huge batch, freeze them & then just pop them in the toaster.
(In case you're wondering, they have only 10g of carbs, 6g of protein & only 98 cals a piece. yay!)

1 3/4 c whole wheat flour
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
4 egg whites
1 3/4 c skim milk
1/3 c canola oil
2 scoops whey protein powder (vanilla flavor)

Mix all ingredients together in blender for a couple minutes.
Bake in hot waffle maker until done.
