We were having a lively discussion on food at a family get together when the conversation turned to waffles, with one of the older family members suggesting we have a breakfast get-together the next holiday so I could make waffles, which she recalled was the best in the world.
A younger member of the group wondered what type of waffles I bought, not realizing that you could make them from scratch at home and didn’t have to depend on the frozen type you popped in the toaster. It was then that I decided we definitely needed to have a family breakfast the next week and call it a “wafflefest”.
Everyone who owned one, brought a waffle maker the following weekend. I was in charge of making the batter and everyone else brought toppings that included fruit, nuts syrup, and butter.
I was going to make a huge batch of my “world renown” best waffle batter, but one of the group suggested I wait until everyone got there so those who wanted to know how to make it could watch.
Within a few minutes, we had the most delicious waffle breakfast you could ever imagine and one very amazed family member who now realized you could make waffles at home and don’t need to buy them in the freezer section.
These taste so delicious I had a few people at the gathering suggest we start a waffle restaurant and one very enlightened person asking where to buy a waffle maker.
Add the egg when the milk/butter mixture is at the proper temperature. Whisk to combine. Now you are ready to combine the wet and dry mixes. Use a whisk to combine the ingredients and make the batter.
Let the batter sit at room temperature to allow the yeast to bloom. You can bloom the yeast for ten minutes or up to 2 hours. But the longer the better.

Thanks for sharing the nice post. The recipe is really awesome in looks and nice appearance.
Reading your post reminded me that I haven’t had waffles in ages. I go through periods of skipping things I like. It’s time for a plate of waffes, fruit and maple syrup.
Very Nice Dish. The images makes me watering in mouth. I really love this dishes. The texture of all the dishes is very awesome. I also try in India. Thanks for sharing the post…
This looks absolutely delicious! I’m going to add it to my fall recipes! Can’t wait to try it!
This looks truly scrumptious! I look forward to my trip to Belgium! I cannot wait!!!! You have very good culinary skills!
These fluffy waffles look great. A perfect weekend treat.
Huge fan of waffles here!!! And I really enjoy them also with cheese! Thank you for the recipe!
Omg I adore a good wafle. I seriously love it more than any breakfast bread food. I even recently got a mini waffle maker…it only makes on mini at a time but it’s sucha great little gadget to have. Love your food presentation!
This is such an amazing post! I’ve never made Belgian waffles before.. Your recipe seems so easy and I might give this a try tomorrow!
I’m loving this waffle recipe. I make my own pancake recipe and they are so much better than anything you get in the shops. I’m definitely gonna give this one a go as they just look to good to ignore. Just booked marked it there. Thanks!
I am all for delicious waffles. We just recently had national waffle day and I missed out on the waffles which I was sad about. But I am going to have to get some soon.
I never tried Belgium waffles and it looks really yummy. It looks perfect option for breakfast meal.
Belgium waffles made by you with many variations is a nice breakfast option. Loved the berries option the most.
looks really delicious!!I’ve only had waffles in america and these pics remind me of it for sure! so i have to try that recipe and see if i can do the same !!!
I’m a waffle ddict and love to habe them form late breakfast. I’m so happy there are nowadays easily available glutenfree flour. I always add some berries, cream or yoghurt but next time I will try them with savoury toppings.
Hey Calleigh, the comment under the name P was commented by my Prateek Goel. I don’t know, somehow it happened. Please change that one..
Thanks.
Yummy!!! If I seriously tell you, then I just love to Belgium stuff. Belgium chocolate, Belgium waffles everything. However, I’ve never tried to make those. Homemade waffles recipe is amazing.
My recipe for waffles has been my family’s secret weapon since I was a kid! IT’s been written on recipe index cards and handed down person to person for years. It’s so easy and forgiving.

Leave it out over night and if that Sunday morning snooze turned out to be longer than you expected, the waffles seem to taste even more buttery and delicious for some reason. I am still using my grandmother’s waffle iron from the 1950’s because I haven’t found another that had been able to mimic the cooking abilities (it looks rather lovely on my counter as well). x
OMG these waffles look soooo delicious! I wish I had a waffle cooker but I’ll steal my boyfriend’s one ahah
The photos look so nice and I’m feeling hungry already!
This is one of the best recipes of Belgian waffle I’ve come across; with all the detailed steps and information. Now, I just have to invest in a waffle maker. 😀
Your waffles look so big and fluffy! I have bought a waffle maker some time ago but so far I didn’t find a recipe that would make those perfect Belgian treats I ate while in Belgium. I will try your recipe too, wish me luck! 🙂
My goodness, this is so rich and delicious. Loved the togetherness of fluffiness and crispiness, I must bake this for sure.
I think the best waffles are always those where the mixture is freshly made, rather than using premixes. Belgium waffles have the best reputation, especially those that include their wonderful chocolate! I look forward to giving your recipe a try and impressing all in this house!
They looks delicious! Never had waffle mix with something salty! Intressting! The waffles in US are so sweet. My favorite are Swedish waffles serve with simple strawberry jam
and whip cream.
These look really good! I love your pictures, they make me want to eat them! I think I will make these for the kids breakfast when they start back at school next week!
I love that part waffles with eggs one. It does look yummy. I hope you can create something else with your waffles.
Homemade waffles are certainly superior over any shop bought ones I have ever tried. Yours look simply delicious, and I love how you can add different toppings for preference. A wonderful excuse for a breakfast get together, any day.
Sounds like the perfect thing to have for breakfast this weekend! I love waffles with bacon and eggs
Loving the fact you had a wafflefest, what fun! Reminds of me of a holiday we took in Iceland a few years ago and to our surprise and delight, many of the hotel breakfast buffets had a waffle machine or two plugged in and hot, next to a huge bowl of batter, a ladle and a tonne of toppings nearby! Yum!
It never ceases to amaze me what some folk buy in the freezer aisle, I do love waffles but rarely eat them, the bacon and egg one looks glorious.
I would love to have these waffles for breakfast! Great tips. Love the first picture with the berries and chocolate sauce. So much yum!
You sold me at Belgium waffles! Great instructions and hints for making great waffles. Thanks!
This looks just amazing. I want to make them !
homemade waffles are always better aren’t they. These look fabulous, I love a crispy waffle that is fluffy on the inside, My problem is that I cant stop at one
Yum! These look like totally perfect Belgian waffles. I love all the different toppings you use! So versatile!
I want to wake up to this for breakfast.
