Tie-Dye Fruity Pebbles-Crusted Waffles

With these tie-dye Belgian waffles, the breakfast classic gets a much-needed makeover—and we’re so here for it. From now on, adding Fruity PEBBLES cereal into the batter, around the sides, and on top of your waffle is a must. Think of it as sweet and fruity confetti (that also adds a super satisfying crunch)! Whip out the waffle iron to make these as breakfast-for-dessert, or treat yourself any weekend morning you want breakfast to feel like a party.

Ingredients
- 3 cups
all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 tsp.
baking powder
- 1/2 tsp.
baking soda
- 1/2 tsp.
kosher salt
- 2
large eggs
- 2 cups
low-fat buttermilk, room temperature
- 1/2 cup
(1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 tsp.
pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups
Fruity PEBBLES™ cereal, plus more for garnish
Red, yellow, green, and blue gel food coloring
Cooking spray, for waffle maker

Directions
- Step 1In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Step 2In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, buttermilk, butter, and vanilla. Add dry ingredients to bowl with wet ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Step 3Divide batter between 4 medium bowls and add a different color food dye to each bowl of batter. Gently fold a 1/4 cup of Fruity PEBBLES cereal into each bowl. Pour remaining cup of Fruity PEBBLES cereal onto a shallow plate.
- Step 4Preheat a Belgian-waffle iron; spray with cooking spray. Spoon a bit of each differently colored batter (from all 4 bowls) onto the preheated waffle iron, using about 1 cup of batter total and leaving a 1/2" border around the iron. Close waffle iron and cook until lightly golden, about 4 minutes. Let waffle cool completely on a wire rack. Meanwhile, repeat with remaining batter.
- Step 5Spread whipped topping on edges of cooled waffles, then dip in remaining Fruity PEBBLES cereal. Serve with another dollop of whipped topping in the center and sprinkled with Fruity PEBBLES cereal.
