Blueberry Waffle Add 1/2 cup of blueberries to the batter before cooking in the waffle iron. Sprinkle a few extra blueberries on the batter before closing the iron.



Maple-Glazed Bacon: Maple syrup and bacon are a classic combination that pairs perfectly with the warm spices in this waffle recipe. The salty-sweet flavor of the bacon complements the waffle while adding a delicious crunch.


Berry Compote: This sweet and tart compote is the perfect accompaniment to the warm spices in the waffle recipe. The tangy flavor of the berries balances out the sweetness of the maple-glazed bacon, while adding a bright, fruity element to the meal.
