Chocolate Chip Waffles

August 7, 2018 Kerrie @ Family Food and Travel 117 Comments

Chocolate chip waffles are a delicious way to start your day. Our recipe features simple homemade chocolate chip waffles that will cook to perfection in your waffle maker. All ingredients are easily found on hand and are perfect for a weekend breakfast, brunch or a special weekday breakfast (birthday breakfast treat?) We love this waffle recipe because it’s not too sweet and is absolute perfection with local maple syrup. Read our review of the Breville Smart Waffle Pro to see why we think it makes the best waffles at home.

Delicious fluffy waffles make a fantastic breakfast or brunch option and with this recipe for chocolate chip waffles, the added chocolate chips are semi-sweet so they are perfectly delicious! Great served alongside our Greek Yogurt Quinoa Breakfast Bowl or a Blueberry Almond Smoothie for a complete breakfast.

    I’ve found the best way to do chocolate chip waffles is to sprinkle on the chips after you’ve poured the batter in. Even distribution, easier scooping or pouring of batter.
