Â
For the Waffles:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– ½ cup sugar
– 1 tbsp baking powder
– ½ tsp baking soda
– ½ tsp salt
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup buttermilk
– ½ cup vegetable oil or melted butter
– Zest of 1 lemon
– ¾ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Â
For the Lemon Glaze:
– 1 cup powdered sugar
– 1 tbsp lemon juice
– 1-2 tbsp water
– Yellow food coloring
– Purple food coloring
Â
For Assembly:
– Lollipop or popsicle sticks
Â
1. Make the Waffle Batter:
  – In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  – In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, oil (or melted butter), and lemon zest until well combined.
  – Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
Â
2. Cook the Waffles:
  – Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  – Once preheated, coat the iron with a little non-stick spray or melted butter if needed.
  – Pour enough batter onto the waffle iron to cover the surface and close the lid. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.
Â
3. Cool and Cut:
  – Let the waffles cool slightly on a wire rack. Once cool enough to handle, cut them into squares or your desired shapes.
  – Insert a popsicle stick into each piece of waffle. (Alternatively, you may insert the sticks while still in the waffle maker to ensure a solid connection, but be careful not to burn yourself.)
Â
4. Prepare the Glaze:
  – In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar with lemon juice and water until smooth. Adjust the consistency by adding more lemon juice or powdered sugar as needed.
  – Divide the mixture into two bowls and add yellow food coloring to one and purple food coloring to the other. Mix until you achieve the desired colors.
Â
5. **Glaze the Waffle Pops:**
  – Dip or drizzle each color of glaze over the waffle pops, making sure they are evenly coated.
Â
6. **Serve and Enjoy:**
  – Let the glaze set for a few minutes, then serve your Blueberry Lemon Waffle Pops! They can be enjoyed warm or cold.
Â
Tips:
– For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of vanilla extract to the waffle batter.
– If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw them beforehand to prevent them from bleeding into the batter too much.
