Instructions

1. Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tbsp baking powder, 2 tbsp caster sugar, 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 tsp ground cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp salt until fully combined.
2. Step 2: In a separate bowl, whisk 1 1/4 cups milk, 1 tsp vanilla extract, 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter, and 1 large egg until smooth.
3. Step 3: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; lumps are fine. Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions.
4. Step 4: Lightly grease the waffle iron and cook batter in 1/3 cup portions for 4-5 minutes until the waffles are cooked through and slightly crispy on the edges. Keep warm.
5. Step 5: For the raspberry sauce, blend 1 cup fresh raspberries with 2 tbsp powdered sugar and 1/4 cup water until smooth. Strain through a sieve to remove seeds.
6. Step 6: Serve waffles topped with a generous drizzle of raspberry sauce and sprinkle 1/3 cup desiccated coconut over the top to echo lamington textures.
