The following recipe is adapted from the Liège Tourisme website (www.en.liegetourisme.be). It includes vanilla sugar, honey, cinnamon or powdered vanilla and some bicarbonate of soda. Make sure to preheat the waffle iron properly – it needs to be hot to stop the waffles from sticking to the cooking surfaces.

Gaufre de Liège

Step 1/3

Use a small amount of warm milk to dilute the yeast. Mix 800 g of flour, 5 dl of milk, vanilla sugar, whole eggs and diluted yeast to make yeast dough. Leave it to rise for 15 minutes at room temperature.

Step 2/3

Add the softened butter or margarine, 200 g of flour, cinnamon or vanilla, honey, salt, and bicarbonate of soda into the dough. After kneading the mixture, allow the smooth dough to rise for another 10 minutes.

Step 3/3

Fold the dough into the pearl sugar and divide it into 90 to 140 g pieces (taking into account the size of the waffle iron). Bake the waffles in a preheated waffle iron.
