Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup buttermilk

1 large egg

1/4 cup melted butter

1 cup breakfast sausage (cooked and crumbled)

4 large eggs (for filling)

1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup chopped green onions

Salsa or hot sauce (for serving)

Fresh cilantro leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Make the Waffle Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, large egg, and melted butter until smooth. Gently pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until just combined—be cautious not to overmix to maintain a tender waffle texture.

    Preheat the Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron as per the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly coat both sides of the iron with cooking spray or a brush of melted butter to ensure the waffles don’t stick.

      Cook the Waffles: Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron, just enough to create a thin layer. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes. Carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack to keep them crisp. Repeat this process until you've cooked approximately 8 mini waffles.

        Prepare the Sausage and Egg Filling: In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, scramble the four large eggs. Stir gently until the eggs are just set, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. If desired, fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and continue cooking until melted and creamy. In a separate pan, heat the crumbled breakfast sausage over medium heat until warmed through, about 2-3 minutes.

          Assemble the Taco Waffles: Take a mini waffle and carefully fold it to form a taco shape. Start by adding a generous layer of the warm crumbled sausage, followed by a hearty spoonful of the scrambled eggs. Top each taco with a sprinkle of chopped green onions for a fresh kick.

            Serve: Drizzle with salsa or hot sauce to your taste. For an extra touch, garnish with fresh cilantro leaves if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your delightful Mini Sausage and Egg Waffle Tacos while they’re warm!
