Ingredients

In this Kosovan adaptation of Brussels Waffles, we incorporate traditional Kosovan flavors to add a unique twist. The original Belgian waffles are typically served with powdered sugar or syrup, while the Kosovan version embraces the use of local ingredients such as honey, yogurt, and fresh fruits for toppings. Additionally, we infuse the waffle batter with warm spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, giving them a distinct Kosovan flavor.

Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Flour — Sift the flour before measuring to ensure a lighter texture in the waffles.
  • Cinnamon and nutmeg — Use freshly ground spices for the best flavor.
  • Milk — For a richer taste, you can substitute some of the milk with buttermilk.

Tips & Tricks

  • To achieve a crispier exterior, let the waffles cool on a wire rack for a few minutes before serving.
  • Experiment with different toppings such as chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
  • If you prefer a sweeter waffle, increase the amount of sugar in the batter.

Serving advice

Serve the Kosovan-inspired Brussels Waffles warm, allowing the toppings to melt slightly. Accompany them with a cup of hot coffee or tea for a delightful breakfast or brunch experience.

Presentation advice

Arrange the waffles on a plate, stacking them slightly to create height. Drizzle honey over the top and garnish with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of fresh fruits for an appealing presentation.
