I don’t know about y’all, but after making breakfast every Monday through Friday, the menu can get bor-ring. Not only do I get tired of fixing the same thing, I need food that I can put on the table in a hurry with as little fuss as possible. TA-DA…waffle iron to the rescue! I finally found the best Buttermilk Waffle recipe and the great thing is, you can make a BIG batch, freeze them, then heat them up in the toaster. Hallelujah! This has made a big difference in our morning routine since we don’t have to have the same ol, same ol, everyday – now, it’s just waffles on demand.
Of course, I couldn’t just let this recipe go as it was, I had to give it a little southern twist. I had some sausage crumbles that were left over from another dish and they were just calling out for waffles & syrup! Simple and easy, just add your batter to the waffle maker then sprinkle on the cooked sausage. It’s the perfect match with warm syrup, add a little fruit on the side and you are ready to start your day.

Notes
A Couple of Things ~ if you have a thing against bacon, you can always substitute chopped bacon. When I put the waffles in my toaster, due to the size, I break them in half with the round edge at the top then reheat on the “toast” setting. Yum….
