Belgian waffles are great because you can have them for breakfast, lunch or dinner with no judgement from others. They are also an open pallet where you can really add whatever topping you choose. Normally they are served with strawberries and whip cream, but we really like adding a little syrup as well (maybe you can add chocolate or nuts). Another pro tip is to cook some bacon as well. Because let’s face it, there are not many recipes in this world that are not enhanced buy a little bit of that bacon. Either way, you will need a waffle maker for this recipe because I have no idea how to cook a waffle without one. It would basically be a flat ass pancake without one… but technically I guess it would work and still taste good. So do that at your own risk.

- 1/2 cup butter
- 3/4 cup sugar

- Add egg yolks and beat until foamy
- Stir in flour and baking powder

Traditionally these are served with strawberries and whip cream. You can add on some syrup and maybe even a little chocolate syrup for a super sweet treat.
