Go Back
The history of waffles dates back centuries, with origins tracing back to ancient Greece, where they were cooked over an open flame between two metal plates. These early versions were more akin to flat cakes than the fluffy waffles we enjoy today. The modern waffle, as we know it, began to take shape in the Middle Ages, particularly in Belgium, where the iconic Brussels and Liège waffles were born. These European variations quickly captured the hearts of food enthusiasts and travelers alike.

Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tablespoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

1 cup milk (or plant-based alternative)

1/4 cup creamy peanut butter

2 tablespoons melted butter (or coconut oil)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (plus extra for topping)

Cooking spray or additional butter for greasing the waffle iron

Instructions
 

Preheat Your Waffle Iron: Set it to the desired setting for a crispy outside and fluffy inside.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until fully combined.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the egg and then add the milk, peanut butter, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well until the peanut butter is fully incorporated into the mixture.

        Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined – do not overmix! The batter should be slightly lumpy, and some flour bits are okay.

          Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the batter, ensuring an even distribution.

            Grease the Waffle Iron: Lightly coat the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

              Cook the Waffles: Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron (usually about 1/2 to 2/3 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron). Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 4-6 minutes, or until golden brown.

                Serve Warm: Carefully remove the waffles and serve them hot. Top with extra chocolate chips, a drizzle of peanut butter, maple syrup, or whipped cream if desired.

                  Enjoy: Sit back and savor the delightful combination of chocolate and peanut butter in these delicious waffles!
