BAKED Sunday Morning
I don't own a waffle maker, so I thought I would have to skip this recipe or make malted pancakes instead, but I checked with my daughter and she had one. These are so easy to make. The only change I made was with mine - I used peanut butter instead of butter on top because that is how I always fix my pancakes (or I should say my once a year pancake). I added some mini chocolate morsels and some syrup and had the most delicious breakfast. I mean, how could it not be good with all that sweetness on top, right?
John was able to give me a more honest opinion about the flavor of the waffle because he had his waffle with just a little bit of maple syrup. He said that it was delicious and really didn't even need the syrup and had a second waffle plain. One of the reasons why I don't make pancakes very often is because they seem too heavy to me, especially in the morning. The malted milk powder and the buttermilk really gives the waffle a lovely flavor without the heaviness that you find in restaurant waffles.
I'm glad there is batter leftover to make some more later. Head on over to BAKED Sunday Mornings to see what the other's thought about their waffles and you can also get the recipe while you are there.
Elaine, These look amazing…Love the touch of peanut butter and chocolate chips! So yummy!
ReplyDeleteI thought that the waffles were good plain, but I can only imagine how amazing they would be with peanut butter and chocolate chips. Wow!
ReplyDeleteOh yours turned out beautifully! Nice and golden. And you know...Peanut butter and chocolate chips are a great combination for this malted waffle! Great job! : )
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter! Sounds delicious! They look great!
ReplyDeleteI'm doing these again for an after church Sunday brunch...I'm putting peanut butter on the table in your honor, and chocolate always gets there in several forms. I was telling a friend hat these were easy and just made with pantry items...she said malt is not a pantry item for her...well, with these Baked recipes it has become a pantry item for me. Funny how I've changed.
ReplyDeleteYours look delicious! After reading your post, next time I am going to make breakfast waffle sandwiches and put peanut butter and chocolate chips for the filling.
ReplyDeleteI will have to use this recipe next when I make homemade waffles...my hubby loves to make Bisquick pancakes/waffles, so I'll have to treat him and the kids to this yummier option~
ReplyDeleteI don't have a waffle maker either... and nobody who can lend it to me, what a shame because these look delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThat's great you were able to get your hands on a waffle maker. Me not having one, I would've just skipped the assignment that week.
ReplyDeleteLovely Elaine! I love your additions / creative and delicious! I will have to try these in a pancake form - great idea - I'm sure they will be light with the malt! What a perfect morning photo too - they look light and fluffy! Happy Baked Sunday!
ReplyDeleteThese look scrumptous!
ReplyDeletea few weeks ago i made a peanut butter maple syrup for some whole wheat pancakes...totally should have used it on these waffles!
ReplyDeleteMmmm....that sounds tasty. I love a good waffle.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful flavor combination! I thought of trying them with Nutella, but I'll be the peanut butter/chocolate combination couldn't be beat! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so making these again with peanut butter or nutella!
ReplyDeleteThese waffles look fab - I love the fact that you took your photo outside with the sun coming in - gorgeopus. Very jealous in grey old Melbourne!
ReplyDeleteNow, that's just a perfect breakfast!
ReplyDeleteNow that you mention I think peanut butter and chocolate are PERFECT for a waffle. I don't think I have them but once a year either... and I love malt so I guess I will have to break out this book again.
ReplyDeleteWhat I would not do for waffles like yours every morning - perfect :D
ReplyDeleteCheers

These look delicious! I love adding peanut butter to breakfast foods, bagels, english muffins, toast...
ReplyDeleteI always like the idea of a waffle but I know what you mean about them being heavy. About mid-way through one, I start regretting it. I'm going to have to check out this recipe made with malted milk. Sounds intriguing!
ReplyDeleteI don't make pancakes often, but it's for the sweetness rather than the heaviness. I'm not a fan of sweet food for breakfast, which is ironic because I crave sweets the rest of the day!
ReplyDeleteThese waffles look just amazing - I never had waffles with peanut butter and chocolate chips or malted milk powder in my life - that does sound interesting to say the least - I have only added buttermilk or cream to the waffle dough. And I do have to get a copy of "Baked" - the recipes sound so tempting!
