Waffle Recipes & Ideas

Leftover fried rice never had it so good.

They're worth waking up for!

We're harnessing the power of whipped egg whites to give waffles that coveted airy crunchy and adding one must-have ingredient that really sets pancakes and waffles apart.

A combo unlike any other!

I can still remember my first time tasting a cornmeal waffle covered in a blanket of butter and syrup.

These are the only waffles I'll make from now on.

They're light and crispy, too.

Whenever I go home to Minnesota to visit my family, there’s one thing that I always request: Grandma’s overnight yeast waffles. To me, these are the quintessential waffles and all others are held to their standard. They’re crispy on the outside and tender in the middles, but they’re also a touch chewy from the overnight rise with yeast.

Corn and berries are a summer love match.

"In her post, @thatnursecancook asks, "Would you order a sweet plantain waffle for brunch? I bet it would go nice with some fried chicken on top right?" The answer is 100 percent, yes."

"I’ll be adding this one to my regular breakfast rotation, and you better believe I’m going to be looking for new things to waffle from here on out."

"And, FYI, I mixed the batter by hand, poured in flour right from the bag, used inexpensive waffle makers, and bought the wrong brown cheese. And the waffles came out amazing."

The whole family will love the cinnamon roll vibes.

You likely already have all the ingredients on hand.

Your search for the perfect waffle recipe ends here.

You won't be able to stop eating them.

No other waffles come close.

They have the soul of twice-baked potatoes, but are a million times easier.

They're packed with warm fall spices and just a touch of brown sugar.

The easiest way to make churros at home.

Autumn's MVP of breakfast.

“They are so easy to make and the best-tasting homemade waffles ever."

Drizzle it on top or dunk the waffles in like donuts.

I've never tasted a waffle like this one!

They're everything I want in a really good waffle.

It's the same technique we use for making ultra-light and fluffy pancakes.

This recipe couldn't be easier.

I tried it to find out.

I don't care if it isn't strawberry season yet, I want these!!!

I’m a huge supporter of using store-bought ingredients and making them special. As if using two waffles as your breakfast sandwich bread wasn’t awesome enough, this super-impressive spicy maple butter will knock this meal out of the park. Whipping up a special butter right after you’ve crawled out of bed may seem to you like climbing Mount Everest with one leg, but you can make it ahead, and I promise you it is so worth it.

Calling all keto people! This one's for you.

Can you love a waffle so much that it becomes essentially impossible to do justice to its magnificence? The first time I tried Gaufres de Liege I was in Amsterdam, where the waffles must have migrated and settled. The vendor was located on the museumplein near the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam and the Van Gogh museum. Served with a modest dusting of powdered sugar, the waffles were golden and crispy on the surface, with a chewy yet tender crumb within.

Put this recipe at the head of your “To Make” list immediately. It’s ideal for brunch, but if you like breakfast for dinner, then this savory waffle recipe will be seriously soul-satisfying. And the best part? Obviously, it’s the cheese.

Breakfast for dinner is a weekly staple in our house. It’s easy on the cook (and the wallet!) and the kids love it, too. Chrissy Teigen’s Crispy Parmesan Waffles are going to be your new favorite breakfast-for-dinner recipe and here why: They’re more than 50 percent cheese by volume but they cook up light as a soufflé and crispy like Parmesan frico.

Tomorrow is International Waffle Day, which means it’s pretty much mandatory that you kick off your Saturday with a batch of waffles. But don’t wait to pull out your flour and milk until tomorrow morning — start the batter tonight and let it rest for truly exquisite results. Mixing some of the ingredients tonight — water, honey, yeast, flour, butter, salt, and milk — is like a little gift to your future self.

I remember the day I opened my KitchenAid mixer: The box was the biggest thing under the Christmas tree that year, and (for once) I had no guesses as to what was inside. You see, I had come to terms with the fact that I probably wouldn’t get the kitchen essential until I got married — to a person I didn’t even know existed yet.

Last year we hosted family at our house on Christmas Day — all with a brand new baby. After a few moments of minor stress and lots of pacing, I’ve decided that the only way to have an easy, effortless day that I can truly enjoy is to do much of the food preparation in advance. So I started playing around with interesting, festive waffle recipes and landed on this incredibly tasty, fragrant eggnog waffle dressed up for the occasion with spiced whipped cream and a dusting of cinnamon.

Want crispy falafel without the hassle of deep-frying? All you need is a waffle iron. Yes, that trusty appliance you typically reserve for breakfast can also be used to make dinner! The falafel waffle — almost as fun to say as it is to eat. The key to these falafel waffles is using dried chickpeas. After the soaking the chickpeas in water for 24 hours, you blend them with garlic, fresh herbs, spices, chickpea flour, and lemon juice.

The boyfriend adores waffles. They come second only to pancakes in his favorite food department. So when I bought a waffle iron a couple of years ago, it was a sure sign that I was in the relationship to win it. But purchasing the device was the easy part. It was finding the perfect recipe to accompany it that was so hard.So the search began. I pored over cookbooks, food blogs, and magazines, all in search of a great waffle. And you know what? I found it.
