Ya’ll know how much I like waffles.  I love waffles.

They’re the perfect food.  Light, fluffy, tasty.  Perfect with syrup, delightful with butter and fabulous plain.

You can eat them for breakfast, you can eat them for dinner.  You can have them for lunch or even dessert.  You can freeze them for later or eat them in one big gorge fest.

Not that I would know anything about that.

But you know what makes these waffles even more perfect?

They’re my Grandma June’s recipe.

And that just makes them even tastier.

Especially for dinner.

  11. ingrid Says:

    I want you to know that I’ve been really good about not complaining that it’s been like more than a WEEK since you gave us a new edition of Twirl. I’m pretty certain some where there’s probably like a law or rule about that. But I’m being good, patient, and not complaining or thinking that you hate me or anything, though you have been torturing me, fortunately I was soothed with the newest Gift.

    Yay, only two more days!

  21. Tiaras & Tantrums Says:

    oh I just found canned batter – like in a can of whip cream – too funny – I can’t wait to use ti!

  22. Dawn (Bee and Rose) Says:

    You should have seen Cat’s face when she saw the waffles! Waffles are her absolute favorite food! She turned to look at me and said, “I LOVE coming over here!”

  23. Pam Says:

    I love, love, love waffles. I coulde eat them day or night with lots of butter and a bit of maple syrup. They look fantastic Duckie.

  24. Marjie Says:

    I never separate the eggs for my waffles. Way too much like work for me. So they’re a little less light. So what? I’ve never tried buttermilk in them either, but maybe I will. You can find strawberry waffles, banana waffles and plain waffles on my blog, and they never last any time in my house.

  25. cindy Says:

  63. TeresaR Says:

    We trained the kids to make waffles, so now they make them just about every Sunday! I want to put whipped cream all over my waffles, but dh won’t let me.

    I’d have the kids attempt your Grandma’s recipe, but I don’t know if they can handle separating eggs yet. :}
