How To Make Restaurant Style Homemade Belgian Waffles

Big, crispy, buttery Belgian Waffles just like in the restaurants at home .  It is a lot easier than one may think.   Follow the directions below and you will be enjoying them in no time at all.

TIP *  –   Make extra and freeze them for a quick breakfast during the week.  Store in a freezer bag for up to 2 weeks.  Take out how many you want,  cook in a toaster oven or on a cookie sheet in the oven.

WARNING-   this is NOT a low fat recipe.  The amount of butter seems scary, but it really isn’t for the yield. The butter is what makes these so delicious!

  1. I love waffles because they are so delicious and Belgian waffles taste so good that I can eat them every day. This is a very good recipe for making these waffles and I am making them this weekend.

  2. No more Waffle House or IHOP for me. I can make my own waffles at home.

  3. I LOVE Waffles!

  4. I love waffles and I am going to try this recipe today I have been looking for a homemade recipe for a while now! thank you for posting this

  5. These look AMAZING!!!!

  6. I’m excited to win this one, homemade waffles, looking forward to that.

  7. I can’t wait to make these! Thank you for sharing the recipe!

  8. I love waffles,

  9. Now this is something I need to bookmark for my son! He adores waffles of any kind. My favorite is using Belgian waffles with strawberries and ice cream. 🙂

  10. My fathers favorite food is waffles. Restaurant quality waffles. I will have to make these for him.

  11. oh wow that sounds amazing! thank you!!!

  12. Those look yummy and seem easy to make!

  13. I love Belgian Waffles but I have never made them at home before. I like the idea of making them ahead of time and freezing them for later.

    • they taste awesome, honestly I like them better after they have been frozen. They are more crunchy!

  14. I love Belgian Waffles and would be happy to make them at home.

  15. I love, love, love Belgian waffles! I purchased a waffle maker, not expensive, but one that would make a decent round 4-splilt waffle. I then proceeded to the grocery store to buy a mix especially for Belgian waffles. The only one in the store was Krusteaz. This pricey mix was awful. So disappointed I paid for a rather plain and not even remotely close to the flavor of a Belgian waffle.

    I am going to try this recipe, sounds good. I am looking for that taste in the Waffle House and restaurants.

  16. After getting a fancy Belgian waffle maker for Christmas, I’ve been on the search for an easy AND tasty Belgian waffle recipe. The yeast and beaten egg white versions are tasty, but what a hassle for waffles! These are perfect! Crispy outside, soft inside. Yum.

  17. Made the waffled this morning. This is a excellent keeper recipe. While I was baking them I got idea to sprinkle real bacon pieces on them and bake. They are awesome. Thank you for sharing this recipe.

  18. This is a GREAT recipe! My entire family enjoyed them. Its a keeper!

  19. Melissa, thanks for the recipie. Mine came out spongy and soft. Any suggestions what I might have done wrong?

    • HI Scott!

      Spongy and soft sounds like a temperature issue? If it isn’t high enough not enough steam will escape during the cooking process to make them crispy on the outside.
      Just a thought.

  20. When do we add the vanilla?

    • Before adding the flour

      • Please put that in the actual recipe; it’s not in there at all. I added it at the end with the second milk addition, hope it doesn’t make a difference. Waiting for the iron to heat first.

        • I’m not sure what you are referring to, but looking at the comments I can only assume you mean the vanilla. It is listed in the recipe in the first line, and it will not matter, vanilla is not a crucial enough ingredient to affect your end result.
          Thanks!

  21. Waffles weren’t crispy but I think my waffle iron is the problem. 😉 They taste great, my 16 year old son couldn’t get enough! Thanks for sharing!

    • Your welcome!

      Try wiping the waffle iron with oil prior to turning it on , the heated oil tends to crisp the edges.

  22. Waffles have to be my favorite breakfast food ever. My waffle iron makes them in a heart shape. Can’t wait to try this recipe! Thanks for linking up with the Delicious Dishes Recipe party!


  23. I did just egg yolks on the first step and whipped the egg whites and added them last by folding them into the batter to make the lighter and crisped in the oven for 5 minutes on 300 degrees and they were perfect. I think next time I will try 1 1/2 flour and 1/2 cup cornstarch to get that extra crispy exterior but over all one of the best recipes I’ve tried.
