When you get married you go scan happy, registering for all sorts of home products. One of these products that we registered for was your standard waffle maker, making these tasty things. However, I didn’t realize that it would make more of a flat waffle instead of the fluffiness of the belgian waffle.
So, when we got a belgian waffle maker for Christmas, we’ll have waffles no other way!
The belgian waffle maker makes even the whole-wheatiest of waffles taste light and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. When served immediately with syrup, the crispy outside soaks up the sweet syrup like a sponge.
Holy yum!
Well, I’m letting you in on our little secret and sharing our go-to waffle recipe. I’ve tried a ton of them and this is by far our favorite. The best thing is you can make them plain or add in whatever you’d like from berries to cinnamon to chocolate chips!
How do you take your waffles?

- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup canola oil

How-To
- Preheat your belgain waffle maker.
- In a large bowl, whisk all of the dry ingredients together.
- In a smaller bowl, whisk all of the wet ingredients together.
