Make-Ahead Waffles with Peanut Butter Spread: Pink Ribbon Recipe

Make-Ahead Waffles with Peanut Butter Spread: Pink Ribbon Recipe

Hi everybody :)

If you're just tuning in to my post, every Sunday I post a Breakfast Is Served.  This Breakfast Is Served Sunday is a Pink Ribbon Recipe. To catch up, last week post is found here.  

Today your in for a treat... these make-ahead waffles are prepared the night before and baked the next morning, for a nice hot breakfast.  They're also topped with a spread made up of  peanut butter and maple syrup! YUM!

This recipe may be a good choice for cancer patients because it contains peanut butter and flour, which provides provide protein, magnesium and iron. Protein helps the body grow new cells with nitrogen. Plus the waffles has a lot of  important calories the body needs for healing.  These are also great for diarrhea one of the side effect of cancer treatment.

So let's get it started...

What I Did and/or Think:
I made the batter according to the recipe. With the spread, I added enough syrup to make it drizzle. I baked them in my Double-Side Waffle Maker,  great waffle maker, I love it!

The Taste: The waffles was delicious, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.  The spread was delicious also. I think ALL peanut butter fans would enjoy this recipe. To make this extra special sprinkle mini semi-sweet chocolate chips on top of the spread. These waffles would be great with any topping.


This recipe will be REPEATED! 

For variation, this can also be used for pancakes; just pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto a greased hot griddle cook until puffed and bubbled, flip and cooked until golden brown. Prepared waffles and pancakes can be frozen and reheated in a toaster as needed for breakfast in a hurry. 

ENJOY! Come again...
