I don't know if I did something wrong, but this batter was as runny as water. My husband said the flavor wasn't really any different than Krusteaz Belgian Waffle mix that we use...thank god for that because this batter was very difficult to work with in the waffle maker and just went everywhere...then not enough. It did crisp up nicely if you like crunchy waffles. I think I'll stick to the mix. Thanks for sharing though.

This recipe gets MY five stars! I just made these waffles in my new (used) Belgian Waffle Iron, and am very I agree that this is an oh so simple recipe. I am so please with how they turned out. Since my waffle iron came to me used, it did not have an instruction booklet, so I had to guess at the cooking time. It might be helpful, if you add a recommended cooking time, at the end of the recipe.

Thank you Bev, for such an easy recipe! Just got a Belgian waffle iron for Xmas, and the recipes that came with it were horrible! I was going to return the thing when I decided to check 'zaar for better recipes. I came across yours, and because one of your recipes is an all time favorite of mine, I figured I could not go wrong with your waffles! They came out wonderful. I made them plain this time and got 12 waffles out of the recipe. In my waffle maker (Salton) I needed slightly less than 1/3 cup batter or they were oozing out the sides. I had to play around a bit to get the perfect amount, but once I got going they turned out wonderful. They kids had them with butter and syrup AND then had them with ice cream I can't wait to try them with the add-ins! Thanks a bunch!

This recipe was soooo simple. The other reviewer was correct the recipes that come with the irons are horrible and not quick. This was perfect comfort food for a cold night (it was 7 degrees when I made these!) the only thing I added was a little vanilla. Thanks for a easy and wonderful recipe!
