My Cinnamon Roll Waffles were my first recipe to hit it big right away. I was so surprised because this was a such an easy recipe. Sometimes I spend months thinking about and planning a recipe. And then sometimes it’s about 5 minutes of brain power. This was a 5 minute recipe! It is so easy and so delicious.
One of my blogger friends Jennifer from A Home With Purpose said I should make a single serve option too. What a great idea! A lot of the time I am just cooking low carb and Trim Healthy Mama food for me.
My family eats about 50% on plan and 50% off. A single serving of these waffles are perfect when I’m afraid I’ll eat two or three. They are filling but delicious and I’ve always had trouble sticking to regular portion sizes.

Waffle Batter Ingredients:
1 eggs
1/4 cup cottage cheese (4% fat works best)
1 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup Trim Healthy Mama Baking Blend (or my local baking mix: equal parts almond flour, coconut flour, and ground golden flax)
1/4 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp baking powder or soda (I’ve had readers use both successfully)
1.5 tbsp Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet (or my sweetener blend)
Cinnamon Swirl Ingredients:
2 tsp melted butter
2 tsp Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet (or my sweetener blend)
2 tsp cinnamon
Icing Ingredients:
1 oz cream cheese, softened
1 tbsp Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet (or my sweetener blend)
Directions:
Put the cottage cheese in the food processor and blend until smooth. Add the cream cheese and process until smooth. Add the other ingredients and pulse until they are thoroughly incorporated.
Stir together the ingredients for the cinnamon swirl.
Spray your waffle iron with cooking spray. Spoon on the batter and drizzle on some of the cinnamon swirl. Swirl it in gently with a toothpick, knife, or spoon. (I put it in a ziploc and piped a swirl but you really couldn’t see it after it was cooked so don’t bother).
Cook until golden brown. Remove carefully.
While the waffle is cooking stir together icing ingredients and set aside. Spread the icing on the waffle and serve.
This shows 2 waffles. The single serve recipe will make one large Belgian waffle or two regular sized waffles.

Do you think I could use yogurt in place of cottage cheese?
Maybe. Sorry, that’s not more helpful. I’m not 100% sure it will work because cottage cheese acts a little more like a binder than yogurt would.
WHAT WOULD THIS BE?? S OR E??
THANKS
