45 minWhen you’re craving Belgian-style waffles but don’t have time for a yeasted batter, this baking powder version delivers fast.
The batter comes together in one bowl with just a quick stir to blend the flour, baking powder, milk, and egg substitute, making it perfect for busy mornings or impromptu dessert waffles.
These cook up with a lighter crumb than traditional Belgian waffles, which makes them ideal for topping with frozen yogurt or ice cream without feeling too heavy.
The recipe suggests topping each waffle with a scoop of frozen dessert and a dollop of whipped topping, then finishing with sliced strawberries for a treat that works equally well for brunch or after dinner.
Kitchen Tips
- Don’t overmix the batter; a few lumps are fine and will disappear during cooking
- For richer flavor, substitute half the milk with heavy cream
- Try different toppings like chocolate chips, bananas, or a drizzle of caramel sauce
