SUNNY'S RAINBOW AND TIE-DYE WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a round waffle maker. Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Place a baking sheet fitted with a rack in the oven.

Cook to desired crispness, about 3 minutes. Transfer the waffles to the baking sheet in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• To plate, cut each waffle in half to make half circles and transfer each half to a plate. Add whipped cream to the flat bottom of the waffle halves to look like clouds. Add your favorite rainbow sprinkles or rainbow rice cereal for more color. Drizzle with maple syrup, if using. Serve immediately with butter, if desired.
• To make tie-dye waffles: Separate the batter evenly among 4 to 6 bowls, one bowl for each desired color. Dye each bowl of batter one color by adding 3 to 4 drops of food coloring until you reach the desired shade.
