Mmmm breakfast. Doesn’t get much better than an amazing breakfast recipe, does it? One of my favorites is my bacon, egg and cheese casserole recipe but I can’t deny that I love – absolutely love – a big plate of Belgian waffles in the morning.

Okay, I love a big plate of them any time of the day, really.

Did you know the Belgian waffles we have here in the states actually are not a true Belgian waffle? While we enjoy them topped with heavy syrup, fruit, whipped cream, and other toppings, a true Belgian waffle has the waffle portion made well enough to stand on it’s own.

They are made differently than we make them here and the difference in process creates a different final product; even if the ingredients are pretty well the same.

Belgian Waffles Recipe

Here in the United States though, we love to top our Belgian Waffles with all things sweet and there’s a reason for that;they are amazing that way!

I personally love to eat mine with strawberries, homemade whipped cream and crushed pecans, but what you top yours with is entirely up to you.

They make a great breakfast, brunch or even a quick and easy dinner for those busy nights after school or work.

How to Make Easy Belgian Waffles

If you are going to be serving your Belgian waffles with syrup, I highly suggest you use real maple syrup. They’re so Delicious with real maple syrup!

I had not tasted the real thing until a few years ago and holy smokes there is a huge difference! I won’t use anything else these days.

THIS is my favorite maple syrup. Try it. I’m sure you’d love it too!

Before you make this Belgian Waffles recipe, you will need a mixer – either a stand mixer or a hand mixer and a waffle iron.

This recipe for Belgian waffles makes 6-8 waffles depending on how large you make them.

You Will Need:

  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 2 tbsp. sugar
  • 2 ¼ c. all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp. baking powder (or use clabber instead!))
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 c. milk
  • ¼ c. vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract

Supplies Needed:

  • Waffle Iron
  • Hand mixer or Stand Mixer
  • 2 Medium mixing bowls
  • Dry measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons
  • Liquid measuring cup

Before you begin, heat your waffle iron according to it’s instructions and separate the egg whites from the yolks.

As your waffle iron heats up, make a meringue.

If you’ve never done this, beat the egg whites into soft peaks. Once soft peaks form, slowly add the granulated sugar.

Continue to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

THIS video can explain it and show you if you’re more of a visual learner.

After you get stiff peaks, combine the remaining ingredients – including the egg yolks – in a separate bowl . Be sure not to over mix.

Fold in the meringue/egg whites and mix gently until just incorporated.

Scoop around 1/2 cup Belgian waffle batter onto your hot waffle iron and cook as directed by your iron.

Serve hot with whipped cream,maple syrup, nuts, berries or whatever strikes your fancy!

Freezer cooking is one way tho make your life easier and to save money on groceries and luckily, this belgian waffle recipes is freezer friendly. In other words, yes! You can freeze these belgian waffles!
