Waffle French Toast with coconut buttermilk syrup.

You know what’s easier than waffles? French Toast… and you know what’s easier than cooking french toast in a pan? Cooking french toast on a waffle iron! Yep…waffle french toast is sweeping the nation. Well maybe not yet, but it should be, because it’s down right easy AND delicious!
Have you ever tried this before? It’s like the best of both worlds, and it’s definitely my new favorite way to cook french toast. It’s so fast! Top with pineapple and coconut syrup, and it’s like you’ve escaped to a tropical island for breakfast…or something.

Here in Utah, we are lucky to have THE best white bread…which makes for some excellent french toast. We have some friends that always stock up on it when they’re in town.

I use a glass pie plate for easy dipping, along with a little bit of cinnamon into the milk and egg mixture.

For the coconut buttermilk syrup, I used my favorite buttermilk syrup recipe, and just added a teaspoon of coconut extract at the very end.

Coconut Buttermilk Syrup

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cup buttermilk

2 Tablespoons corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons coconut extract

Instructions

Bring to a boil the first four ingredients (sugar, buttermilk, butter, and corn syrup).
Remove from heat and stir in the baking soda. It will bubble up big. Having it off the heat and stirring constantly will help it not boil over.
