Description
Bright and warm waffles studded with melty chocolate chips and sweet-tart cherries, making for a delightful breakfast with a dessert-like feel.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup fresh or canned cherries, pitted and chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease the plates with a little melted butter or nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the buttermilk and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips and chopped cherries. Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle maker and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions until crispy and golden brown—usually 3–5 minutes per waffle.
- Serve warm with additional cherries, a dusting of powdered sugar, maple syrup, or chocolate syrup.
Notes
Use cold or room-temperature cherries and avoid overmixing the batter for tender waffles. For crispness, warm your waffle iron well and keep the batter slightly thick.
