Equipment

  • 1 Waffle Iron round
  • Microwave or Stovetop
  • 6 Squeeze Bottles substitute with 6 containers with pour spouts

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups All Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 2 cups Milk room temperature
  • 4 Eggs room temperature
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the waffle maker.
  • In a medium sized bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together. Be sure that the eggs and milk are not too cold or it will cause your melted butter to seize.
  • Add in the melted butter and vanilla extract. 
  • Pour the dry ingredients into the wet small amounts at a time and mix the ingredients until they are blended. Once all your ingredients are incorporated, mix the batter to remove any lumps.
  • Divide the batter into six bowls.
  • Add the food coloring, one color per bowl. Remember, you don't have to make a traditional rainbow - you could use pastels or anything you like!
  • Make sure the food coloring is completely incorporated. Then transfer the batter into squeeze bottles or pourable cups.
  • To pour the batter into the waffle iron, start with your purple in the center and work your way out.
  • As you add each color, let the colors touch slightly, but leave room for the batter to expand.
  • Continue this process to the outer edge of the waffle iron with your red batter.
  • Cook the waffle according to your waffle irons instructions. This is usually around 5 minutes.
  • Break the waffles in half and serve with whipped cream to make fluffy clouds.
