Secret Family Waffle Recipe

Hello Lovelies,

I am back with another recipe! Since I now have time in the mornings to make breakfast I love to experiment and get creative, but this recipe has been one that has been in my family for a while!


It's my families secret waffle recipe!

What you will need:

1 cup of flour
1 tsp of baking soda
1 tsp of baking powder
1 egg
1 cup of milk

How to make it: 

This is literally one of the simplest recipes I have ever come across and it is always the one I go back to! To start add in the flour, baking soda and baking powder, and mix them together. Then, add the cup of milk and combine! The next step is possibly the trickiest part of the entire recipe, separate the yolk and the white of the egg and put the yolk into the mixture. Take a fork and whisk up the egg whites till there are stiff peaks, yes takes a little arm strength ;). Once you have the peaks, fold it into the mixture just until it is combined, and that is it! Pour the mixture into your waffle maker and you will have amazing homemade waffles in no time!

Hope you all try out this recipe and enjoy it!

Vanilla Iced Coffee

Hello Lovelies,

Today's post is a recipe! This one is super easy and a coffee lovers dream for a summer drink!



What you will need:

A mug of fresh brewed coffee
Milk (I used low-fat but use whatever you like)
Vanilla extract
3 Sugar cubes
Mason Jar
Ice

How to put it together: 

First, take the mason jar and fill a quarter of the jar with milk and ice. Then, take the mug of coffee and add the 3 sugar cubes and a splash of vanilla. Mix that together and using a spoon slowly pour the coffee mixture into the jar, spoonful by spoonful. Yes, that is a little tedious but I couldn't find another way to make the milk to coffee transition stand out :(. Lastly, take a straw and take a nice refreshing sip of this delicious simple iced coffee!

Hope you try out this simple yet delicious iced coffee!
