Gaufres à la flamande

(Flemish Waffles)

Flemish waffle is a traditional product consisting of flour, yeast, butter, milk, eggs, salt, and vanilla sugar. Unlike Brussels and Liège waffle, the Flemish variety is usually consumed without any toppings after it has cooled down.


It is recommended to prepare the waffles in large batches as they can be preserved for a few weeks if stored properly.
