PANCETTA AND CINNAMON WAFFLES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Spread the walnuts in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until toasted and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat and lightly grease a waffle iron.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pancetta and cook until brown and crispy, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer the pancetta to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the waffle mix, eggs, vegetable oil, 1 1/2 cups water, the cinnamon, and salt. Using a whisk, blend the ingredients together until smooth. Stir in the pancetta. Pour the batter, using the amount recommended by the waffle iron manufacturer's instructions, into the preheated waffle iron. Cook waffles for 3 to 4 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Place the waffles onto serving plates. Sprinkle with the chopped walnuts and drizzle with the maple syrup. Serve immediately.

- Ladle 1/3 cup batter onto each square of the waffle grid; spread almost to the edges. Sprinkle with 1 to 2 teaspoons cinnamon sugar.
- Close lid; bake 3 to 5 minutes, until no steam emerges from waffle iron. Transfer to a baking sheet; place in an oven set to low heat, about 200 degrees, while using remaining batter. Serve warm.
CAROL'S CINNAMON WAFFLES
If you like those cinnamon waffles from the frozen food department of the grocery store, you'll love these! I developed this recipe because I don't care for syrup. Most waffles need the sweetness of syrup to make them special. These waffles are yummy just as they are; no syrup necessary! Whipped cream and fruit are a great addition if you want to go all out or just add butter and powder sugar to the top. These may brown quicker than standard waffles because of the sugar in them, so test the first one and adjust the time. I have also added 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed; you can't taste a difference. Enjoy!

Steps:

- Pour milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract into the flour mixture; stir until just combined.
- Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak.
- Fold the the beaten egg whites into the batter.
- Preheat a waffle iron and coat with cooking spray.
- Pour batter onto waffle iron in batches and cook until crisp and golden brown, about 2 minutes; repeat until all batter is used.
