Ingredients
8 frozen waffles
12 oz popcorn chicken (about 1/2 bag)
6 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup maple syrup
Optional: pinch of salt or cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a 7×9 inch or 8×8 inch casserole dish with cooking spray.
- Lightly toast the waffles in a toaster or in the oven for 2–3 minutes, then dice them into bite-size pieces.
- Dice the popcorn chicken into 1-inch pieces, microwaving for 30 seconds if needed to soften.
- Arrange the waffle pieces in the casserole dish and mix in the chicken pieces evenly.
- Whisk the eggs, milk, maple syrup, and optional salt or cinnamon together. Pour over the waffles and chicken.
- Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Add extra maple syrup if desired.
Notes
Swap popcorn chicken for rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken.
Add cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla for a sweeter flavor profile.
Add shredded cheddar or pepper jack for a richer casserole.
Avoid freezing; waffles change texture after thawing.
