Some of Our Favourite Waffle Recipes

If you’re running a cafe, a street-side food stall or simply a home cook, waffles are a massively versatile base for all sorts of delicious dishes. However, if you’re new to the culinary game, you might be used to simply slathering the fluffy, ridged treats with Nutella and calling it a day. In reality, you might be cutting yourself off from all sorts of awesome waffle recipes. 

This blog is going to share some of our favourite recipes, so your idea of what to serve with waffles can expand, whether selling them to the masses or making them at home. 

Classic American Waffle Breakfast

We’ve all seen the classic American breakfast plate, popular at establishments like Denny’s or IHOP. Piles of scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon, accompanied by pancakes and maple syrup. Why not transform it into a great American waffle recipe instead of using pancakes? With basically the same ingredients, you’re simply levelling the meal up on a texture level, allowing for more ridged goodness to soak up all those meaty juices and syrupy sweetness. 

Beans on Waffles!

Just go with us here. When we imagined a classic British waffle recipe, this is what we landed on, and it was delicious! Without adding any sweetness to a neutral mix, you can treat the waffle like toast, with the squares ready to hold each bean comfortably before being topped with cheese. It’s also worth considering the possibilities of having your own waffle iron – why not repurpose old mashed potatoes to make your own potato waffles for this savoury treat!

Healthy Goodness Waffles

Let's get back to planet Earth to prove you can have a sweet waffle recipe without feeling too naughty. Take a classic waffle, then top it with some Greek yoghurt and a mixed fruit salad, with berries, pomegranate seeds and some local honey. That way, you can enjoy a delicious and nutritious waffle recipe with the addition of antioxidants, probiotics and more! This one is perfect for the workday brunch crowd.  

Stick Waffle Fondue

With some stick waffle flour, some wooden rods and a few sauces, you can make an interactive dipping experience that’s a little more fun than your average waffle. You could even switch things up and introduce some melted cheeses for more of a classic fondue experience, ideal for those with more experimental palettes! 

Chicken and Waffles

To finish off the list we have perhaps the king of American waffle recipes that has taken the world by storm in recent years. We are of course talking about the iconic Chicken and Waffles. Fried chicken, whether in the form of tenders or on-the-bone pieces, is served atop classic sweet waffles, complete with maple syrup and hot sauce. The combination might sound a little odd, but the mixture of spices, protein and sweetness results in a cacophony of flavours and textures that can’t be denied. 

Note, the key to any good Chicken and Waffles recipe is top-tier fried chicken!
