Method
 

Step-by-Step: How to Make Mickey Waffles
  1. Preheat the Waffle Maker
  2. Turn on your Mickey-shaped waffle maker and let it fully preheat. This helps create that crisp outer edge and fluffy interior.
  3. Mix the Ingredients
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 egg, 1 cup of Golden Malted waffle mix, 5 oz of water, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir until the batter is smooth with no lumps.
  5. Prepare the Waffle Maker
  6. Lightly spray the waffle maker with non-stick cooking spray. This keeps your Mickey waffles from sticking and ensures clean edges.
  7. Pour the Batter
  8. Carefully pour the batter into the waffle molds. Fill each Mickey shape without overflowing.
  9. Cook the Waffles
  10. Close the lid and cook for 2–3 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown. Each waffle maker may vary slightly, so adjust the cook time as needed.
  11. Serve and Enjoy

Notes

Gently remove the waffles using silicone-tipped tongs or a wooden utensil. Add your favorite toppings and enjoy a breakfast that feels straight out of the parks.
Note: If Golden Malted mix isn’t available, any classic waffle mix will still give you magical results.
