Waffles

Waffles are a batter or dough-based food item that is cooked between two patterned plates, known as waffle irons, which impart a distinctive grid-like shape. Typically made from a mixture of flour, eggs, milk, and baking powder, waffles can be sweet or savory. Sweet waffles are often served as a breakfast dish or dessert, commonly topped with items like syrup, butter, fruits, or whipped cream. Savory waffles may include ingredients such as cheese or herbs and can be served alongside savory toppings or sauces. Waffles are enjoyed in various cultures around the world, and different regional variations exist, such as Belgian waffles and American waffles, each with unique textures and flavor profiles. The cooking method and the batter recipe contribute significantly to the final taste and texture, resulting in a crispy exterior and a soft, airy interior.
