How to make easy tie-dye waffles

Breakfast is my favorite food to make and eat. My go-to breakfast are easy recipes and it never takes too long. My kids love waffles and so do I. One Sunday morning I decided to make tie-dye waffles to change it up a little. I did not make them from scratch, like a lot of recipes you will find. I made them with “just add water” pancake/waffle box mix. Although I do not just add water. Instead of water, I use almond milk and add a teaspoon of vanilla extract. These tie-dye waffles are great for weekends and special occasions. The best part is the kids can join in also. Check the recipe below.

Mila was recording the video of me pouring in the batter for the tie-dye waffles, as she was singing so it is a little wobbly. They tasted great and we will definitely be making them again. It does get a little messy and sticky. For another recipe to make with kids, check out this cookie recipe we made over the holidays.
