Best Ever Homemade Waffles
These best ever homemade waffles will be a hit with your family for Saturday morning breakfasts!
Around here it is a Saturday tradition to make waffles for breakfast. This waffle recipe is SO GOOD that it totally deserves the title of best ever homemade waffles.
Because making waffles can be a bit of a production, it is best to plan to make at least a double batch and freeze the extras for later. Honestly, we usually make a triple batch, because it is great to have a big stash of waffles on hand in the freezer for use over the next couple of weeks.
Freezing waffles is really easy, just check out this quick tutorial for How to Freeze Waffles.

Why do the daddies always make the best breakfasts!
I was looking to try a new waffle recipe, so I gave this one a try. It was too sweet for me, but I did like the flavor the butter gave it versus the oil that my old stand-by recipe calls for. My waffle iron must be quite a bit bigger as I only got 8 waffles from the recipe. Thanks for sharing!
