There’s something magical about a freshly made waffle — the golden squares crisp on the outside, pillowy-soft within, each pocket just waiting to be filled with melted butter and a drizzle of maple syrup.
The smell alone is enough to make everyone in the house wander into the kitchen with hungry eyes.
Homemade waffles aren’t just breakfast; they’re pure comfort and celebration on a plate. Whether you pile them high with berries and whipped cream, or go savory with fried chicken and gravy, every bite is a moment worth savoring.
