Description
Why have a waffle drizzled with syrup and a slice of bacon on the side when you can have a salty and sweet waffle batter all in one?
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 – 8 slices of bacon
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp pure maple syrup (plus more for serving)
- 1 cup of milk
- 1 egg
Instructions
- pre-heat your waffle iron
- cut bacon into pieces small enough to fit across your waffle iron, I cut each piece of bacon into thirds
- cook bacon on the waffle iron, 2 pieces per section (my iron has two sections), close lid and cook 2 minutes, rotate the bacon, close lid and cook another minute or two to your desired crispness
- lay the bacon on a paper towel to absorb the grease, and drain excess grease from thewaffle iron
- to make the waffle batter, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt
- in another bowl whisk together the milk, egg, syrup and the melted butter
- pour the wet ingredients over the dry, and mix just until combined
- pour 1/2 cup batter (or what is recommended for your waffle iron) and spread almost the the edges
- place 1 or 2 pieces of bacon in the center of each waffle
- close the lid, and cook until browned and crisp
- waffles can be kept in a 200 F. oven while you complete the remaining waffles
