How to Add Toppings to Homemade Waffles

Waffles are one of the most popular breakfast foods. It is easy to enhance the taste with a variety of hot or cold toppings to please the entire family. Fruit, whipped cream, yogurt, nuts, cinnamon and syrup are a few of the many topping favorites.

Things You'll Need

• Serving plate
• Kitchen scissors
• Serving spoon
• 2 waffles
• Fresh, frozen or canned fruit
• Whipped cream
• Walnuts, almonds or choice of fruit

Instructions

1. Place the warm waffles on your serving plate. Let the waffles cool just enough to handle them. Cut around the waffle edges to create uniformity and a smooth, round finish.

2. Spoon a generous amount of whipped cream over the first waffle. Allow the whipped cream to ooze evenly over the waffle edges.

3. Add your choice of fresh, frozen or slightly drained canned fruit.

4. Continue layering by placing the second waffle on top of the fruit. Invert the order for the top layer.

5. Top off your waffle with walnuts, almonds or choice of fruit.

Tips & Warnings

• To bring out the natural juices in fresh fruit, add a little sugar to your fruit and set aside for 1 hour before using.

• Substitute the whipped cream with yogurt for a lite version.
