12 sweet and savory waffle recipes for your hot iron

Do you know anyone who doesn’t like waffles? Fortunately, neither do I! Because let’s be honest, it’s one of the best inventions ever for the coffee table. Whoever came up with it should be honored.

Whether in the shape of a heart, square and good or as small waffle fries, the pastry makes the hearts of those with a sweet tooth like me beat a little faster in every variation. And the great thing is that you can vary the batter however you like. To add a little variety to your waffle plate, here are no fewer than 12 waffle recipes for you today , from sweet to savory.

Before you start baking, I have 4 tips for fluffy waffles for you:

• Don’t be afraid of eggs: Yes, many a waffle recipe has a fair amount of eggs on the list of ingredients. And rightly so. Because they ensure a particularly homogeneous mixture. An additional beaten egg can also provide that extra bit of fluffiness. Alternatively, you can use mineral water for vegan waffles.
• Baking with baking powder: In addition to egg, you should also use a good portion of baking powder to make your dough rise nicely during baking.
• Leave your dough to rest: Once you have mixed everything together, you should leave your dough to rest briefly. This allows all the ingredients to combine and the gluten to work out of the flour. The result is uniform waffles.
• Sieve out the lumps: It’s one more step, but it’s worth it. You should sieve the flour and baking powder to break up any lumps. This will also make your dough even more uniform.
