The Best Waffle Recipe

This is the best waffle recipe!  If you want fluffy golden waffles that are a little crispy around the edges, then this homemade waffle recipe is for you!  Easy to freeze for busy mornings.  You will need a Belgian waffle maker to make this recipe.

A hot breakfast with the best homemade waffle recipe is something I always desire when I wake up on a cold winter day in Ohio.  Living in our old farmhouse, the wood floors are chilly and the air has a draft to it.  It’s some of the charm of it’s history but it can be a bit hard to leave the comfort of our warm bed.  So, a warm breakfast like pancakes, biscuits or these homemade waffles are just the thing I want to make for my boys each morning and enjoy myself.

But who has time for a big farmhouse waffle breakfast when the bus is coming in 20 minutes and the kids are still in their warm footie pajamas? (Undoubtedly because they are the most warm thing they own, and maybe I want some of those pj’s for myself!)  But you know me, I’m not one to give up.  So, I found a great solution to our hot breakfast in the cold winter mornings.

Now, like all things that are easier during a busy weekday, you have to prep.  And on this morning, I was prepping for the week.  On Saturday or Sunday morning we usually make a big waffle breakfast and take the leftovers and put them in the refrigerator to enjoy all week long – hot breakfast!  We make a double batch of the recipe you’ll find below. Just pop the waffles in the toaster on the busy weekday mornings and you’re done.

*If you want to make the waffles last through the week you’ll need a waffle maker that divides the waffle into smaller parts that will fit into a toaster like this one.

How to Make Homemade Waffles

• Mix the dry ingredients and set aside.
• Beat eggs in a large bowl. Add milk, butter and vanilla. Mix well.
• Stir in the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
• Pour into greased waffle iron and bake by waffle maker instructions.

Tips to Reheat Waffles

After making the waffles let them completely cool.  Tear your waffles into triangles.  As you can see from the picture, my waffle iron creates a natural division.  Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.  Pop into the toaster when ready to reheat. Enjoy with butter and syrup.

Waffle Topping Ideas

I prefer butter and syrup.  However, this homemade raspberry sauce would be amazing . You can also top with whipped cream and fresh fruit.  My kids prefer peanut butter with syrup.

This hot breakfast is fun way for us to gather before a busy Saturday or before church on Sundays.  And the fact that it preps us for the week ahead – its just so clever.  But like every good breakfast, the less dishes and the more prep – the better.  I hope you enjoy this homemade waffle recipe as much as my family has!
