Liege Waffles just like the waffles found at Bruges in SLC, Utah! Crisp outsdie and soft inside, these yeast waffles can easily be made at home with a few simple ingredients.&nbsp;

Liege Waffle Recipe

yeast

butter

vanilla

oz Belgian Pearl Sugar

Sliced strawberries, raspberries, sliced bananas, Nutella, Whipped Cream, Powdered sugar.

Sprinkle yeast and sugar over warm milk in bowl of a stand mixer. Let sit for about 5 minutes until the yeast begins to foam.

Add 2 eggs, melted butter and whisk together with fork.

Add 3 cups flour, salt and vanilla to yeast and milk mixture. Mix on low with dough hook until mixture is smooth. Add remaining 1/2 cup of flour and mix on low for 2 minutes.Place in a warm location, covered for 30 minutes.

After dough has risen, fold 8 oz of Belgian Pearl Sugar into dough using a large spoon or by hand. Divide dough into pieces about 3-4 oz each. You should have 9-10 balls of dough. 

Preheat waffle iron for 10 minutes before cooking dough. Generously grease waffle iron using cooking spray. Cook one piece of dough at a time, placing dough in middle of waffle iron, close and cook until outside is crispy and center is cooked through. Cooking time will vary depending on heat level and waffle iron used. Watch carefully, as sugar will burn if cooked at too high temperature. 

Lay cooked waffles on a wire rack while cooking remaining dough. May be kept in warm oven (225 degrees) until ready to serve, or serve immediately with toppings. 

These delicious Belgian waffles are crisp on the outside, fluffy and tender on the inside and indulgent all over.

Cups All-Purpose Flour (see notes below)

Tablespoon Baking Powder (plus a teaspoon)

Sugar

Salt

Large Eggs (DIVIDED)

Butter (melted)

Cups Milk

Teaspoons Vanilla Extract

Heavy Cream (cold)

Warm your Waffle iron. If you can choose settings I recommend doing darker for a crispier waffle. In a large bowl whisk the flour, baking soda, salt, and  half the sugar then set aside.

Separate the egg yolks and whites. Melt the butter in a small bowl.

In a medium bowl whisk the milk, egg yolks and vanilla together. Stir in the melted butter.

Whip the egg whites and remaining sugar in a clean bowl until stiff peaks form.

Add the wet mixture to the dry and mix until almost combined, then fold in the egg whites.

Add about 1/3 cup of batter for each waffle. This will depend on the size of your waffle maker so feel free to experiment with amounts.

For the Waffles

Mix one cup of cold cream with a tablespoon of vanilla and two tablespoons of sugar until soft peaks form.  You can make your whipped cream more or less sweet and substitute the vanilla for bourbon, maple syrup or even orange blossom water.

For the Whipped Cream

Crispy Belgian Waffle recipe with 4 tips that make these the BEST waffles ever! Simple waffle recipe that everyone loves.

Crisp Belgian Waffles

These easy homemade Belgian waffles come together in no time at all and they result in crisp, beautifully bronzed waffles that are the perfect base for any of your favorite  toppings. The batter for these, quite literally, comes together in a few stirs.

When it comes to the milk, use whole milk (full-fat)— it works best here. If you’ve buttermilk, feel free to use that instead. I’d steer clear of the lemon / vinegar and milk substitute; it’s okay to use a powdered buttermilk substitute, however.

Oil is best for making these; butter just won’t cut it. If you’ve the time to make clarified butter, it works well here. For those of us that haven’t the time to do so for a batch of waffles, feel free to use any neutral-tasting oil. I used sunflower oil, but vegetable oil, canola, etc. would work well too. For a bit of flavor, coconut oil is a great option.

If you’re making a double batch, and want to keep your waffles warm, preheat the oven or toaster oven to 350ºF/ 180ºC and switch it off once it’s preheated. After that, make the waffles as per the directions and put them in the warm oven on a wire rack set on a rimmed baking sheet (avoid stacking them). I’ve also been known to put the cooked waffles straight onto the oven rack in the warm oven– whatever works best for you.

These waffles turned out INCREDIBLE, thank you so much!!

Kristin, that's great! So glad you enjoyed them and thanks for reaching out. I really appreciate it. Peace.

Made these for breakfast this morning, and OH MY GOODNESS!  Crispy, light, and delicious!  I topped mine with a sliced banana and homemade blueberry syrup.  These will definitely be going in the breakfast rotation.  Thank you, Shane, for another delicious recipe!

Yes, sometimes mine come apart at the seams. I don't think the type of milk should matter. Try adding a little more flour to make the batter a little thicker. That might help. Good lukc!!!

Missy, I think what you need is a good waffle iron. I have the Breville Smart Waffe Pro and I get the most amazing waffles, they come out so easily (you do not need to spray it with oil). It's not a cheap appliance but if you regularly make waffles (which I do on weekends), it's worth the investment. And Shane, thank you for this recipe, I have tried many different recipes, yours is my favorite : )

Just made these and loved them! Great recipe! I did use spray on our waffle maker, but not for every waffle.

That's great, Toniska! So glad you liked the waffles. I think sprays do serve a purpose and have a place in cooking when used very sparingly. It's not something sweat too much and sometimes it's just necessary. And, thanks for the rating! Peace.

Yes. You can use gluten-free oat flour or Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 Baking Flour. Should do fine.

First time making waffles at all, and Hubby loved them!  More often they did "split" (we do have an older non-stick waffle maker with a "done" button) with the outside a little more "done" than I'd prefer, but Hubby suggested perhaps I did put too much wet ingredients in... I followed your recipe exactly, with the option of 4 TBSP of the maple syrup... I will make again, because they were really tasty, but will try the 2 TBSP next time, do you think that'll work?  We topped with apples, blueberries and maple syrup, yum!  Thanks!

I made these waffles worried that my son wouldn’t like your vegan French toast casserole on Christmas morning. Turns out he and everyone else loved both! Thank you for the delicious recipe. I still need a non sweet holiday tradition to substitute for the egg casserole that I can preferably prepare the night before though.

Just tried this recipe today and I all I can say is YUM YUM YUM!!!!! I made too much batter. Would it be ok in the fridge for a few days or should I make them and freeze them?

We have made these twice now, in fact they are currently cooking in the waffle iron.  I can't believe they have zero oil and still cook up so beautifully.  I do grease the iron between each waffle but they have the perfect crispness, so good.  We have used both spelt and whole wheat flour.  These will be a waffle staple for us!

I didn't have any whole wheat flour, so I used a mixture of GF buckwheat flour and millet flour. I added a couple tablespoons more of oat flour because the batter seemed too liquidy. These waffles came out amazing! They were sweet but not too sweet and the color/texture were beautiful and crisp. I did use a full cup of batter for a perfect waffle that didn't split. 

Thank you for an oil-free plant-based recipe that I don't feel guilty about!

YUM!!!!    These came out great!  They were a big hit in our waffle loving house honestly better than the recipe we’ve been using for 15 years. So happy to find a plant base recipe for waffles without bananas, a tricky allergy to have eating plant based.

Hi, Erin! Thanks so much and so glad you enjoyed them. Thanks for reaching out.

Love these waffles!   When I make them, I now make a double or triple batch and store them in the freezer. 
 Then the kids can just grab it from the freezer, put it in the toaster and breakfast is served!  This is especially helpful on busy school mornings or when mom just doesn't want to cook breakfast!  Thanks for a delicious recipe and for making our breakfast mornings a bit easier!

The best, as usual. Your recipes are always my go-to recipes for just about everything now. These waffles are wonderful - I'm eating one now. I have a few friends who are finally asking more about plant-based eating, and I always direct them to your website for recipes. Thank you so much!

Another great recipe from Shane. Absolutely incredible. I have not had luck with any other waffle recipe, but these are the best I have ever had. I will definitely be making them regularly.

Wow, that's great Katherine! Hope you enjoyed your time glad you got to be with family.

Hi Shane,
I am so pleased I found your website and all your simple recipes.  I made these waffles this morning and they are so easy and delicious.  I ad them with pear cream, blueberries, passionfruit pulp, banana and maple syrup.  They tasted just as good as the less healthy non plant based waffles!
Thank you for sharing :-)

Thanks so much, Leatha! Honestly, I haven't made the jam with ground up chia seeds. But, I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

Excellent recipe! These waffles are delicious! I will say the yield was different for us, too - as we ended up with like 7 waffles. My family is about one month in on plant-based eating (from omnivore), and your recipes and blog have been super helpful and encouraging. Thank you for that, and keep up the great work! (PLEASE😉)

I cannot believe how great these waffles are. Perfect amount of crispiness on the outside and great flavor. Used Einkorn flour for the whole wheat (one of the ancient grain flours), worked great. Love the flax for added nutrition. We've been making these for several weeks now and are hooked.

I made your Belgian Waffles last night, and we loved them! Who would know they were vegan if you didn't tell. Perfect with real maple syrup. Next time I think I'll add some blueberries. Thank you so much for your wonderful recipes.

Thanks! And, yes, equal to 2 egg replacers.

I have made these before and loved them. But....I've just been told I'm allergic to wheat (not a gluten issue, but a true allergy).  Can I use spelt flour instead, or is there something you can recommend?

I have tried it yet but looks good.... can I make a big batch of the dry mixture and just add all the wet ingredients or do u think it would be better to make a large batch and freeze leftovers?

I've been looking for a good wfpb waffle recipe for a while now. This might be it! I used all spelt flour, added a touch of vanilla &amp; needed about 5 min per waffle in my waffle maker. Nice, crispy, and super airy. It feels like eating a cloud, if that makes sense :-D. Thank you!

Wow, just wow, so flavoursome and delicious and easy to make. I had all ingredients on hand. I followed the recipe apart from using UK cup/tblsp sizes (did not bother to convert) and 2 tblsp of baking powder instead of 1.5. It came out perfectly. I did not have to spray the waffle maker at all, I just made sure it is nice and hot before I made the first waffle. Perfection.

These were a hit! They were easy to make with all the ingredients in my pantry. I added some defrosted frozen berries and top  and they were so good. I am freezing the leftovers so I can just heat up in the toaster.

Finally, the recipe that became successful in making Belgian Waffles that cooked all the way through.  I have been learning how to cook plant-based for the last 20mo and this recipe cooks all the way through.  Was it the applesauce?  I have not used applesauce before bc I didn't have any made.  This time I did. I also coated my waffle surface with the PBV butter (no soy) "Miyokos." Love this product over Earth Balance.  

My granddaughter and Mother even said "these are really good."  Never said it before.

I followed the recipe to the T other than adding a pinch of cinnamon. They did get crispy on the outside but didn’t cook on the inside. I left them in for about 4 minutes too. Tried a few times. Not so sure what a did wrong but ended up throwing out the batter.

I used aquafaba as the egg replacer and made some whipped cream with the leftover, which tasted delicious with strawberries! I will say they didn't have the texture I was hoping for, they didn't get crispy on the outside like other Belgian waffles do and were quite dense, not fluffy. But for something plant based and oil free, I'm impressed!

I make these at least once a week. Thank you so much!!

Made these as stated and they were awesome! Whole family devoured them. Thank you for a great basic waffle with on hand ingredients.

I have made these many times and love them as written. However, last time I didn't have applesauce and used a ripe banana instead. I absolutely loved the banana flavor and they seemed to get crispier. Since I always have frozen bananas, that's what I will use in the future. Thanks for a great recipe!

These were my birthday waffles and they turned out perfect! Slightly crispy on the outside and soft but cooked on the inside. Non-vegan picky eater hubby loved them too! I followed the directions but the only change I made was I used Bob’s Red Mill 1:1 gluten free flour. For the maple syrup, I used 2 TBL. For the flax eggs, I used 2 TBL of ground flax and 5 TBL water. I used my Cuisinart Griddler (regular waffle plates, not Belgian) for the first time and didn’t need to spray the spray the plates with nonstick cooking spray. I set the temperature for 400 and set the timer for 6 min. My Griddler doesn’t emit steam but the 6 minutes were perfect. Will definitely make again—thanks so much!!!

These are now are "go to" waffle recipe!  They taste delicious, are simple to mix up and turn out perfect every time!  Thank you Shane!

Belgian Waffles are both hearty and fluffy - the best of both worlds! This classic breakfast staple is made with a handful of ingredients you likely already have in your kitchen. Top them off with syrup, berries, and whipped cream for the best bite!

Belgian Waffles Recipe

all-purpose flour (240 grams)

sugar (50 grams)

baking powder (12 grams)

eggs (50 grams, room temperature and separated)

milk (341 grams, room temperature)

unsalted butter (113 grams, melted and slightly cooled (1 stick))

pure vanilla extract (8 grams)

Preheat

Whisk

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together until combined. Create a well in the center of the bowl and set aside.

In a second, smaller bowl, mix the egg yolks, milk, butter, and vanilla together, whisking to combine. Add the contents of the bowl to the dry ingredients and whisk until combined.

Whip

Place the egg whites in a small bowl and whip with a whisk or hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped whites into the waffle batter.

Cook

Cook ½-¾ cup of batter in the hot waffle maker until cooked through and golden brown.

This is the best one I've tried yet!  I did use self rising flour because it was all I had, and cut the baking powder to 1 teaspoon.  It did not need the vanilla at all.
