ah…. waffles… April 17, 2010

Is there anything nicer on the weekend than a Belgium waffle?  Probably, at least not in my world!

I have searched high and low for the best waffle recipe and after trying many (and I mean MANY!) I have found it!  I will give 100% full credit to this person because it is the BEST!

Here are my pics from this morning:

Jb’s Classic Belgian Waffles (And Variations) Recipe #41728

We love weekend breakfasts around our house. Belgian Waffles has always been a favorite, especially for my son, JB! You will find all sorts of variations for this recipe, one of which I’m sure will suit your needs! These waffles will come out light, crisp and toast to a golden brown. We love to top ours with strawberries or blueberries, powdered sugar and whipped cream, blueberry syrup & real maple syrup!… And You didn’t think weekends could get anymore special!
