Baffled Over Waffles

IMG_6569Blog

So much to say about this breakfast!!

I don’t have a waffle maker and frozen waffles just aren’t something that I’ve thought to buy in years. But after reading this Shu Box post followed by this post at Cait’s Plate, a major craving was formed!

IMG_6565Blog

I picked up some Kashi 7 Grain frozen waffles (which won the waffle ingredient list/nutrition competition in the frozen aisle for being 100% whole grain and having 98% simple ingredients). The waffles themselves were delicious – very vanilla-y!!!

I have a thing about cold yogurt on hot BREAKFAST foods. On dinner foods, I like it chilled on something hot for contrast, but for breakfast I don’t want my hot food to be cooled off by cold yogurt. I also have a fear of heating up yogurt – that it will separate or taste funny.

But I love greek yogurt and really wanted to simulate Cait’s stacks, so I took a risk and microwaved a half cup for 15 seconds. It turned out perrrrrfect!! Just barely warm enough to keep breakfast warm.

Check two! 

IMG_6568Blog

I also heated the banana and blueberries in another bowl so everything was nice and toasty!! Sunbutter and chia on top!

IMG_6567Blog

Cutting through the layers was so much fun. And these waffles were so aromatic on the vanilla spectrum that I really loved them.

WafflesBlog

Tea, per usual!

IMG_6573Blog

This was a great breakfast! Excited to add it to the rotation. I ultimately wish I could make my own waffles from scratch, but a waffle maker is such a unitasker and I just don’t know if I’d get my money’s worth, and plus I prefer pancakes in general. But fun to have every once in a while in this form!

I don’t have a waffle iron, but just got my first two pre-seasoned pieces from lodge and I like them so far. No chemical t-fal non-stick stuff, either.

    I love frozen waffles but don’t usually buy them because they’re high in Points for Weight Watchers. Haven’t tried the Kashi, I’ll have to investigate. I agree, a waffle maker is too big to buy since it only does one thing. I think I’ll stick with my frozen ones!

    That is a huge breakfast – should hold you for a long time.
    I use the kodiak cakes mix for waffles and that works great. I like having the waffle maker in order to mix things up abit. For me, the taste difference between frozen and fresh is too big to go with frozen – also we wouldn’t use them fast enough then the freezer is filled with that box – all personal choice.
    There are some gizmos that have both a sandwich press and waffle maker in the same device. Have a great day

    My waffle maker gets used ALL THE TIME. I inherited it from my mom, so it’s DEFINITELY at least sixteen years old, but it got so much play when I was a kid and it still does now. And I only use it for straight up waffles half the time. There’s so much to do with the waffle maker…It makes a killer grilled cheese or grilled peanut butter and banana.
    Oh, well, now I know what I’M having for breakfast. Thanks 😉

    i know what you mean about a waffle maker being a uni tasker. that’s why we have a three in one appliance. like another poster, ours (cuisinart) has removable plates, turning it into a griddle, grill/panini maker, or waffle iron. we always make extra waffles, that we freeze and then pop into the toaster to reheat.

They definitely put my breakfast this morning to shame 🙂 I agree with you about the waffle iron – once in a blue moon I really wish I had one, but I can’t justify the space it would take up for such a limited use. I think I might have to pick up a box of frozen waffles pretty soon, though!

    I totally agree about the temps of certain foods. I love CRISPY waffles with a slightly fluffy interior and don’t even get me started on soggy waffles. Yuck! I usually end up with a ‘tasting’ plate for waffles: dollop of Greek yogurt, nut butter, ramekin of warm maple syrup, jam, chia, fruit…the usual. 😉

    Costco has some great deals on waffle makers if you have a membership. Maybe you could get opensky to do a promo?

    Hi Kath, those look delicious. I think these are a great breakfast choice. I actually encourage my nutrition clients to put these in their cart. They can be a great fast breakfast or even a fun dessert. We have made them into carnival style Waffle Ice cream Sandwiches with powdered sugar on top.

    Wafflemakers show up at thrift stores all the time. I got mine there for $3. I only buy unipurpose kitchen tools at thrift stores. I feel like its easier to get my moneys worth out of it.

    You can also make your own frozen waffles. Its way easier and then you know what is in it. I make several dozen once a month and then have them for fast breakfasts or snacks unless my brother eats them all in one sitting.

    Hey Kath – Kodiak Cakes Waffle is what I had this am – it is SO easy (esp with a 6 month old baby at home) plus it is real food I can feel good about breaking off a piece for him to gum-down. The waffle iron we use was 18.00 (!!) and is GREAT (Back and Decker 1 inch belgian waffler). No clean-up, compact and if it does break…I am okay with it as it was about the cost of 4 boxes of Kashi waffles (my frozen fave). I got mine at Macy’s just THIS week! Trust me kodiak made into waffles will blow your mind. They are SO doughy but tender. You can use the same 1/2 cup serving, too. Happy 2nd trimester.

    I have the Chef’s Choice Five of Hearts waffle maker. It makes five heart-shaped pieces instead of four pie-shaped pieces! It makes perfect waffles and also stands upright for storage.

    If you a looking for another use for a waffle maker, you can use the heart shapes to make a cute dessert with a scoop of ice cream in a parfait dish.

    I use my waffle maker as a panini press. Unless you want a perfect looking sandwich, the waffle maker pretty much does the exact same thing! My girls love it when I make them grilled cheese or ham and cheese sandwiches in them. They call them waffle sandwiches. =)

    No time like now to start practicing…

    You can always make up a big stack of waffles one day and then freeze them for easy breakfasts later. We do this a lot with pancakes, waffles, french toast, etc. Just throw them from frozen into the toaster!

    Berf:

    I am a newish reader and I have to say you must get a waffle maker of your own. I have been making these oatmeal waffles that you soak the oats overnight ,they are amazing. Just make sure to get a waffle makers that is more than a waffle maker. Ours can be used to make paninis and open up flat as a griddle. I make a big batch of the waffles and freeze them for later, they are best when you warm them back up in a toaster oven. Plus my baby loves them too!

    The waffle stack looks Delicious!! I don’t eat waffles very often either- but make a similar stack with pancakes or protein muffins. I had a waffle maker years ago, but it never, ever got used. I bet I would use it more now (and they are usually SO cheap). I remember in college having one in the dining hall, and everyone would line up to make Belgian waffles (And usually burn them). My husband goes nuts when we’re staying at a hotel that has one for continental breakfast.
    The Kashi ones ARE good. I might have to go buy some now… it would definitely save some time in the morning when I’m in a rush!

    Wow, those waffles almost look too pretty to eat. I hope they tastes as good as they look, although how could they not with all those awesome toppings you added to them. I don’t like adding cold stuff to my hot foods either. I want my oats to stay hot and my pancakes to stay warm. I always add things like cottage cheese to my oats when they’re still in the saucepan so they can warm up a bit before I add them to my serving bowl. I’m glad to know that nuking the yogurt for only 15 seconds didn’t make them all nasty. Thanks for the waffle inspiration. It’s been years since I bought a box of the the frozen stuff, but I think I may just have been convinced 🙂

    We use our waffle maker a TON! Usually just making buttermilk waffles. But I recently tried an awesome dinner recipe for savory chive & cornmeal waffles topped with eggs & salsa (http://joythebaker.com/2012/01/savory-cornmeal-and-chive-waffles-with-salsa-and-eggs/). And this month’s Bon Appetit had a great idea to pour waffle mix on, then top with ham & cheese or a waffle sandwich (http://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/2012/03/ham-and-cheese-waffles)!
