Akara Waffles (Valentine Treat)

Nina's Cookery Corner
Scrumptious Akara Waffle 
Happy Valentine’s day! So this week I decided to experiment on West Africa’s favourite dumpling “Akara” I tweaked the recipe by adding fresh milk and vanilla extract to make it into a dessert option. Topped with juicy strawberries and blueberries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream, the result was heavenly. Who would have thought aye?
Hope you get to try this recipe as it’s well scrumptious and yummy.
Aprons on!
