We have been LOVING these easy breakfast waffles over here. I know I can’t be the only one who is literally spending their days cooking and eating everything in sight. Like honestly forget the freshman 15, were talking the covid 19 over here.  From fresh baked bread to elaborate suppers, you can bet we’re cooking it. And to be honest. I’m not complaining. I’ve actually been loving it. Trying new recipes and tackling those southern biscuits are almost as much fun as eating them. I’m definitely in my happy place.

I know I’ve said it before but I am really enjoying all the extra time I am getting with my kids. Don’t get me wrong, there are some days I seriously want to lose my mind, okay a lot of days, but for the most part waffle breakfasts in our pj’s have been pretty darn nice. Just getting to BE together is nice.

I’ve been working on this waffle recipe for a while. Trying out different combinations of ingredients and to be honest my kids are still not sick of them. THEY ARE THAT GOOD!

What’s so great about these waffles?

For starters, they taste amazing. They are the perfect amount of crunchy on the outside and sweet and fluffy on the inside. You can make a large batch of batter and keep it in the fridge for the week. If you’re not interested in busting out the waffle maker every day you can easily make a big batch ahead of time and keep the prepared waffles in the fridge. My kids just pop them in the toaster and they are just as good as when they were fresh made!

The toppings are endless and these will be perfect for those busy school mornings if we ever get back there. There is only one mixing bowl (your welcome) and with minimal ingredients and minimal effort these waffles are just simple and easy. Just the way we like it.

Oh and don’t even get me started on waffles for dinner. Who doesn’t LOVE chicken and waffles? I absolutely LOVE Half Baked Harvests Oven Fried Southern Hot Honey Chicken, to be honest I absolutely love everything she makes, and I can already imagine it served up with these waffles. SO GOOD! If we’re going to be quarantined to our homes we might as well eat all the good comfort food. Just sayin.

A lot of people are intimidated by waffles and I’m not sure why? It’s like somewhere over time people just decided waffles were special. They reserved making them for special occasions and holidays. Like Christmas and Mother’s Day brunches. They aren’t really thinking waffle wednesday you know what I’m saying? But I’m here to say no. These waffles are to easy and to delicious to wait that long to eat them. I’m here to bring back Waffle Wednesday’s back one waffle at a time.

What you need

You don’t need a lot of fancy things for these easy breakfast waffles but you will need a waffle iron. I have this one and love it. It’s super easy to use and clean and it’s half the price of the really expensive ones and I’m all about that.
