Stroopwafel (waffles biscuits)

This works best only if you have a pizelle iron. I used the normal waffle maker so my stroopwafel was thicker. More like the Belgian waffles you buy from the outdoor carts .. Ha ha 

Anyway it still turned out great and the kids loved it! 

Waffle batter

1/4 cup warm water

1/2 packet dried instant yeast

A pinch of sugar

Mix the warm water to the yeast with a pinch of sugar. Set aside for 5 minutes

2 cups flour

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 cup melted butter

1 egg

1/4 tsp cinnamon powder

Mix all the ingredients together and set aside for an hour to rise. Cover with cling wrap.

Syrup filling 

3/4 brown sugar

3 tablespoon corn syrup

1/4 cup butter

1/2 tsp cinnamon powder

Stir over low heat until mixture is thick and sticky.

 

Preheat waffle iron. Divide the dough into 30g balls or bigger if you want. Press onto the centre of the waffle iron. Once the waffles are golden, slice in the middle and spread with the filling like a sandwich.  Set aside to cool.
