Description

Brussels waffles are very different from Liège waffles.

On the blog, you can also find my recipe for Liège wafflesricher, denser, caramelised with pearl sugar and delicious as is.

The Brussels waffle is lighter and more rectangular, ideal for topping with icing sugar, fruit, whipped cream or chocolate.

The dough can be prepared in advance and kept in the fridge for a few hours after first rising, and cooked waffles freeze well. For crispy waffles, toast or bake in a hot oven for a few minutes.

Recommended equipment: a Brussels-type deep griddle waffle iron. Personally, I like the Frifri appliances.
