Just recently purchased a waffle 🧇 maker and tried this recipe today. They turned out amazing. The kids devoured them, they were so delicious.
These waffle were such a hit with the family (especially when I topped them with a homemade strawberry sauce) & the batter cooking made the house smell so good ❤️ It was heavenly. These are going in our weekly rotation. Thank you so much for this recipe
I made this waffle recipe this morning… DEEEELUCIOUS!
I love Belgian style waffles and a few years ago I got a waffle maker. I immediately searched for recipes and this and still is my favorite. Very easy and delicious. I substituted eggnog for milk yesterday in it and that was also awesome!
This is a very good waffle recipe, and it’s super easy to make. It took me only minutes to prepare the mix. For a slightly healthier option (and because I didn’t have much butter in the frig) I used extra virgin olive oil instead. The waffles still came out very well, and I’ll continue to use the olive oil instead.
This will be my favorite easy waffle recipe from now on. Thanks!
A very good recipe
These waffle are so good!!! I love cinnamon & nutmeg so I put 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg,I use 3 teaspoon white vinegar to make home butter milk, for topping I use crushed walnuts / blueberries no syrup,they are delicious!!!🤪✌
These waffles were amazing! Usually I use a mix out of a box. But I didn’t have any on hand today so I looked up a recipe. I will never use a mix again!
Can use gluten-free flour in this recipe?
I’ve almost always used gf flour with this recipe and though it does affect the texture slightly, they’re still amazing! Give it a go 🙂
Made these today for the first time. Didn’t have buttermilk so I substituted whole milk. Came out great!
