  • Author: name
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 portions

Description

Fluffy, golden waffles infused with warming spices like ginger, cinnamon, and cloves — every bite releasing that nostalgic, cozy aroma perfect for holiday mornings or weekend brunches.


Ingredients

  • All-purpose flour
  • Brown sugar
  • Baking powder
  • Baking soda
  • Ground ginger
  • Cinnamon
  • Cloves
  • Nutmeg
  • Eggs
  • Molasses
  • Milk
  • Butter, melted
  • Vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and all the warm spices.
  3. In another bowl, beat eggs, then add molasses, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter onto the hot waffle iron and cook until golden and crisp, about 3–5 minutes depending on your machine.
  6. Serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, powdered sugar, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

Don’t overmix the batter to keep waffles tender. Keep waffles warm in a low oven until serving. Add chocolate chips or nuts for extra flavor. Use buttermilk instead of milk for tangier waffles. Prepare batter the night before for easy mornings.
