Thank you PINTEREST! Found this fabulous recipe when I was looking for a SPECIAL occasion-type breakfast.  I wanted CINNAMON rolls, but these waffles were much less WORK!

Cinnamon Roll Waffles
(Recipe from Chef In Training)

1 3/4 cups flour

2 tablespoons sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 large eggs

2 cups buttermilk

1/4 cup canola oil

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Cinnamon Roll Topping

1/2 cup butter melted

3/4 cup brown sugar packed

1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon

Cream Cheese Glaze

4 tablespoons butter, softened

2 ounces cream cheese

3/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Make a well in the center of the mixture; set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, oil and vanilla. Pour into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened; batter will be slightly lumpy. Preheat a waffle iron and spray with nonstick spray. Pour batter into waffle iron grid and close the lid. Bake until waffles are completely done.

CINNAMON TOPPING: In a medium bowl, mix butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Scoop the filling into a small zip baggie and set aside

CREAM CHEESE TOPPING: In a medium, microwave-safe bowl- heat butter and cream cheese for 30 to 60 seconds; just until melted. Stir together until smooth; whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla extract.

When ready to serve, place waffle on plate, drizzle cinnamon topping, then drizzle cream cheese topping. Use as much or as little as you'd like. Serve immediately.
