If you're finding yourself at a loss for how to up the festivity of mornings in the post-Christmas lull, try making a batch of decadent eggnog waffles for breakfast and watch the sparkle return in a flash!
Pull out your waffle iron, it's time for dinner. That's right, no one said it was just a breakfast thing OR a requirement that anything made in it needs to be smothered in maple syrup or other sweet things. Let's stuff ours with pizza!
Adding cottage cheese to waffle batter gives a moist, creamy twist to a breakfast favorite. Imagine little pockets of creaminess nestled in a waffle with edges dotted with flecks of cheese that have been crisped by the waffle iron. Now imagine them topped with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. You're welcome.
Pumpkin waffles are easy to put together and help add an element of festivity to any weekend breakfast. Although this time of year inspires me to make large, fancy brunches featuring waffles like these, scones or muffins, egg dishes and bacon or sausage. Then, I don't eat for the rest of the day!
A trip up north to celebrate birthdays introduces others to the joys of Bacon Belgian Waffles. If this is something you've yet to experience, I highly recommend choosing a lazy weekend morning and get ready for a treat. Make them mid-to-late in the morning and enjoy alongside cups of hot coffee and fresh sliced melon. Before you know it, you'll be planning weekend brunches featuring these waffles monthly or more often still!
