For breakfast fans torn between eggs or waffles, this Egg Waffles Recipe combines the best of both worlds!
I’m not good at making decisions.
Actually, scratch that. When it comes to stuff like who to marry, where to live, and what to do with my life, I don’t hesitate. But when it comes to stuff that isn’t really a big deal, I panic. I switch back and forth incessantly and, after hours of doing so, am no further forward than I was when I started.
This is why I’m the worst when I’m given a menu longer than a one-sided piece of paper. The agony of choice! Chicken or fish? Grilled or fried? Fries or salad? I’m stressing out just thinking about it. And it’s not limited to restaurants. Even at home, I have trouble deciding. Sometimes, the availability of ingredients and time constraints dictate what I’m going to make. But I’m lost when I have the time and ingredients to make whatever I please.
Luckily, thanks to this recipe, I never have to choose between eggs and waffles. It makes fantastic waffles using eggs as their base. It’s the most delicious crossover of dishes since the meatball sub!
Are These Egg Waffles Healthy?
Yes, they are. The recipe has only three ingredients: eggs, milk, and the leavening agent (baking powder). The eggs and milk provide protein as well as vitamins and minerals. Because of its simplicity, the recipe can be enjoyed by those on low-carb, gluten-free, Paleo, and vegetarian diets.
Let’s Talk Mix-Ins And Toppings
In the wonderful world of waffles (sharing a contiguous border with the paradise of pancakes), there are two factions: mix-ins and toppings. Even though these are egg waffles, you can still decide what you want to mix with the batter and which ingredients you want to load on top.
Chocolate chips, chopped nuts, and shredded coconut are great mix-ins. For added aroma, consider using vanilla extract, cinnamon, almond extract, or nutmeg. Excellent toppings include fresh fruit such as blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, apples, or sliced bananas. Honey, maple syrup, and whipped cream are also delicious. Just don’t go overboard with the mix-ins. Too many, and your batter won’t stay together.
How To Make Ahead And Store
Let the waffles cool, then put them in an airtight container or Ziploc bag. They should keep in the fridge for up to 1 day. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. You may find placing parchment paper between each waffle a helpful way to keep them from sticking. To warm them up, use the oven (or toaster oven).
