We eat waffles in our house like they are going out of style. In fact, my children each eat a waffle for breakfast every morning. For a while, I would buy them from the freezer section, then I realized, why not just make them? Plus, they are much healthier homemade, and you know exactly what is going into them.
I will make a big batch, then place them in freezer bags, then pop them in the toaster to warm them up, so we can have homemade waffles every morning!
Check out the recipe below.

do you have a yummy recipe for gluten free waffles? i have yet to find a really good one.
I BUY waffles like they are going out of style for my family. LOL. I will need to try this recipe, thanks for sharing it. Have you ever tried adding blueberries to the batter itself and then freezing them? Blueberry waffles are THE hit at my house.
