Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

3/4 cup milk (any kind)

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 cup Greek yogurt or cream cheese (for filling)

1/2 cup assorted fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

Optional toppings: chocolate chips, granola, chopped nuts, or colorful sprinkles

Instructions
 

Prepare the Waffle Batter: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, ensuring there are no clumps. In a separate bowl, crack the egg and beat it gently. Then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the ingredients are smoothly combined.

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Using a spatula, gently stir until just combined. It's important to avoid over-mixing; a few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine.

      Preheat the Waffle Iron: Set your waffle iron to the appropriate heat setting as per the manufacturer’s guidelines. Lightly grease the cooking surface with non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of oil, if needed.

        Cook the Waffles: Depending on the size of your waffle iron, ladle about 1/2 cup of batter onto the preheated iron. Close the lid and cook until the waffles turn a beautiful golden brown and become crisp, usually about 4-5 minutes. Continue this process until all the batter has been used.

          Form the Taco Shells: Once the waffles are cooked, carefully remove them from the waffle iron while they are still warm. With gentle hands, fold each waffle in half to form a taco shape. Place the folded waffles on a wire rack to cool slightly, which will help them retain their shape.

            Prepare the Filling: In a small bowl, blend the Greek yogurt or cream cheese with honey or maple syrup until you achieve a smooth, creamy mixture. Taste and adjust the sweetness to your preference, adding more honey or syrup if desired.

              Assemble the Waffle Tacos: Open each cooled waffle taco shell and generously spoon the creamy yogurt mixture inside. Top with a vibrant mix of fresh berries and sprinkle on any of the optional toppings like chocolate chips, granola, nuts, or colorful sprinkles for added texture and flavor.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve the waffle tacos immediately while they are still warm for the best texture and flavor. Dive into this delightful and fun twist on a classic snack!
