Ingredients
  

For the Waffle Tacos:

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

½ teaspoon salt

1 large egg

1 ¼ cups milk (whole or your choice)

¼ cup melted unsalted butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Scrambled Eggs:

6 large eggs

2 tablespoons milk

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Fresh herbs (such as chives or parsley) for garnish (optional)

For Assembly:

1 ripe avocado, sliced

1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or your preference)

Salsa or hot sauce (optional for a spicy kick)

Sour cream (optional for creaminess)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Waffle Batter: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Take care not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.

    Preheat the Waffle Maker: Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer's specifications. Once it's hot, lightly coat the plates with cooking spray or brush with melted butter to prevent sticking.

      Cook the Waffles: Pour approximately ½ cup of batter into the waffle maker, covering the surface without overflowing (adjust based on your waffle maker's size). Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, usually around 4-5 minutes. Once done, carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack to maintain their crispness. Repeat this step with the remaining batter.

        Scramble the Eggs: While the waffles are cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with the 2 tablespoons of milk, salt, and pepper until fully combined. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and begins to bubble, pour in the egg mixture. Allow it to sit undisturbed for a few seconds, then gently stir with a spatula, folding the eggs as they cook. Continue until the eggs are fluffy and cooked through, approximately 3-4 minutes.

          Assemble the Waffle Tacos: Carefully fold each waffle into a taco shape. Spoon a generous serving of the scrambled eggs into each waffle taco. Top with sliced avocado, the shredded cheese of your choice, and any optional toppings like salsa, hot sauce, or a dollop of sour cream for added richness.

            Serve and Enjoy: Garnish the assembled waffles with freshly chopped herbs if desired. Serve your Golden Waffle Tacos warm to savor this delightful blend of breakfast flavors!
