Belgian Waffles
The main difference with the Belgian Waffle over the traditional waffle is that it does not use baking powder for expanding in size, it is a yeast leavened and more “bread-like” type of breakfast item, with the unique taste that fermented dough provides.
It’s a little more time intensive to make, but for those that like a “bread-like taste” it is well worth mastering.
