Maple Glazed Donut Waffles

Sunday, September 11, 2022 2:01

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Hard to believe it, but here we are again at another weekend! And the kids have been back in school for at least half a week if not more! Time for a weekend treat!

And what a treat we have for you here today! Maple Glazed Donut Waffles. Perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch, or as part of a breakfast buffet! Great with a hot cuppa or a cold glass of milk! You choose!

These small cookie sized donut/waffles are light and fluffy and filled with lovely donut flavors. Nutmeg and vanilla. They are glazed with a gorgeous buttery maple frosting.

Not only are they delicious but they go together in a flash and are very simple to make. The waffle machine does all the work!

We are absolutely crazy about the flavor of Maple in my family. We have always loved it. My father’s favorite flavor of ice cream has always been Maple Walnut.

I remember as a child being able to get these tiny maple cones. They were just like a small ice cream cone, but had real maple syrup inside the tips and were topped with maple fudge. Sweet. Sweet. Sweet, but oh so good.

When I first moved over to the UK I brought a 4 liter sized tin of Maple Syrup with me. It had a metal handle and was soooo heavy. My fingers just about broke carrying it.

But I was bound and determined to not leave my beloved Maple Syrup behind. Thankfully Maple Syrup became a lot more available through the years I was there.

And of course now I live in the land of Maple so I will never be without Maple Syrup again!

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE MAPLE GLAZED DONUT WAFFLES

I know I say it all the time, but really you only need very simple every day ingredients for these delicious treats! I am not a person who really goes for outrageous recipes that use outlandish ingredients!

For the donut waffles:

1/3 cup (65g) granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp fine sea salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
1 large free range egg, plus 1 egg yolk
2 TBS melted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk
1 1/2 cups (210g) plain all purpose flour

For the glaze:

4 TBS butter, melted
1 1/2 cups (195g) sifted icing sugar
1/2 tsp pure maple flavoring (optional)
4 TBS maple syrup
1 - 2 TBS milk (only as needed)

I just use salted butter in my kitchen. I refuse to have both salted and unsalted. I just cut back on the salt required in recipes. That works well for me.

I prefer to buy my nutmegs whole and then grate them fresh each time. Nutmeg is one of the warm baking spices that can lose it’s oomph really quickly once ground. So buy whole and grate fresh. You will be amazed at the difference in strength of flavor!

Don’t be tempted to use artificial maple syrup in the glaze. I always only ever use real maple syrup. The flavor is incomparable. You can use a bit of maple flavoring if you want a really strong maple flavor in the glaze.

I just keep it to the maple syrup myself, and I always buy Amber Grade Maple Syrup.

I did add some sprinkles to half of the waffles to dress them up a bit. I wish I had had some autumn colored ones, in golds, reds and oranges. Those would have been really pretty.

HOW TO MAKE MAPLE GLAZED DONUT WAFFLES

You will need a waffle iron of course. You could use one of those mini ones, but it will take appreciably longer to bake these as you can only bake one at at time. I used my Cuisineart griddler with the waffle insert.

Whisk the sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg together in a bowl. Add the egg, egg yolk, melted butter and milk, whisking together until well combined. Stir in the flour to combine. The batter will be quite thick.

Preheat the waffle iron. Add 1 heaped TBS of batter to each waffle receptacle. Close the waffle iron and bake for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden brown. Remove to a wire rack and repeat.

To make the glaze whisk all of the glaze ingredients together until smooth. Drizzle over the donuts, or dunk the donuts into the glaze to coat them. Let sit until the glaze is completely set before serving.

These are best served on the day. You can freeze them in an airtight container before glazing. Simply thaw, make up the glaze, and then coat them when you are ready to serve them.

These were really good. I adapted my recipe from one found on Handle the Heat. Her measurements for the glaze were way off however. It made far too thin of a glaze. I cut the liquid ingredients in half pretty much and added more powdered sugar and it was just right.

If you are as fond of maple as I am you might enjoy these other maple delights also!

BUTTERY MAPLE WALNUT COOKIES - A lovely maple flavored drop cookie with loads of toasted walnuts on top. These are a real favorite around here!

PEAR AND MAPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE – The flavors of pears and maple go very well together. You can use tinned pears or fresh pears. Both will be delicious!

MAPLE CAKE - A delicious moist cake with a lush maple fudge icing. A snacking sized cake that everyone is sure to enjoy!

This is my cooking companion. Well not so much the cooking part as the tasting part. All of my recipes come “Nutmeg” approved which was kind of cook today because the flavor of the waffle part of these is predominantly nutmeg!

He was having a really good time sniffing the air around this waffle. It hated having to tell him that waffles were for people and not for cats. ðŸ˜¿
