  1. Really enjoyed these! They are not as dry as regular waffles. Used sugar instead of honey and added some cinnamon and vanilla. These will likely be our go-to waffle recipe. Thanks!!
     
  2. Very good recipe! Definitely a keeper. I made some variations: put 1 cup of oatmeal in a blender and ground it up and used whole wheat flour for the rest. I then added the rest of the ingredients into the blender as we like the cottage cheese to be ground up w/o the big curds. Similar to other posts we also used oil instead of butter and added cinnamon and some vanilla. As we use a small round waffle maker we used 1/3 of a cup per waffle vs. half and when you put all the ingredients in the blender, the batter spreads on its own in the waffle maker.
     
  3. I went looking for a recipe to use up some cottage cheese and am very pleased with the results. They are not as sweet as other waffles I have made even though I did add some vanilla and cinnamon. I did not spread the batter out, I let the waffle iron do the work. My waffles came out brown with darker spots where the cheese settled. No one will realize that they are made with cheese tomorrow morning. Thank you for posting.
     
  4. Yummy! Made as directed and my family loved them. Got 8 soft, moist (not crispy) waffles. Cottage cheese really isn't noticable in the finished product but I could taste the butter in a good way. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

  1. This is the best recipe to make Belgian Waffles! I substitute 1 Tablespoon of sugar for the honey and add 1 teaspoon of Vanilla Extract. I make one batch and freeze whatever doesn't get eaten in a ziploc. Whenever I want to eat a waffle, I lightly defrost the frozen waffle in the microwave. I then loosely wrap it in foil, place it on a metal tray and pop it into the toaster oven. <br/><br/>I just learned this trick for warm buttery syrup: In a small microwave safe pitcher or glass measuring cup I heat together real maple syrup and a small amount of butter. You use so much less butter and the coverage is better on the waffle otherwise you use tons of butter to try to get every nook and cranny covered. Anyway warm syrup is so much more yummy then pouring cold syrup that has been stored in the refrigerator.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Well, I love to cook. I'd never thought of cooking as a "hobby" until one of our male friends, when asked if he like to play golf, replied, "Golf takes time, and with any extra time that I have, I like to cook. I guess cooking is my hobby". After that day, I realized, it's true...cooking really can be a hobby. Until that point, I had seen cooking as a necessary part of my job in the family, although I have always very much enjoyed cooking. Since then, I have been learning how to do all sorts of things and recipezaar has helped me to accomplish that. On a whim, I can find just about any recipe without much energy at all. I live in S.A. with 2 girls (2 and 7 months) 2 dogs and a great husband!
