Easy

Turn your mornings into a celebration with French Toast Waffles! With these waffles (or French toast) you kill two birds with one stone. French toast – or pain perdu– is the ultimate way to apply no-waste cooking in the kitchen. But by clamping the slices of bread soaked in egg mixture not in a pan, but between a hot waffle iron, you get a delicious crispy crust with a soft, creamy inside!

It's super quick to make, super easy and smells wonderfully of vanilla and cinnamon. My personal favorite topping? A good dollop of real butter and a generous scoop of 'kinnekessuiker' (rock candy/pearl sugar). Also a real winner for brunch!

In an ideal world, you cut your bread slices the day before and place them on a rack so they can dry out. In the morning the bread can absorb the egg mixture better.

Beat the eggs vigorously with all the ingredients or blend with a hand blender.

Place the bread slices next to each other on an oven tray and pour the mixture over them.

Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes and turn them over. Heat up your waffle iron, lightly grease it each time, place the slices between your iron and bake them for about 5 minutes into waffles. Serve immediately with all toppings on the table.

Tips

  • Experiment with different toppings to discover your own favorite combination.
  • For a crispy result, let the bread dry out well for baking.
