Looking for ideas for a Mother’s Day brunch? Try these super easy waffles. They are great for breakfast, brunch or even a quick snack. We make triple the recipe and then freeze individual packs to have for later. My son loves having them as an after school snack, or at the moment “a home- school break!” He just pulls one out of the freezer and pops it in the toaster oven, and voila, satisfaction! 

I love it with powdered sugar, just like how they serve it at the little gaufres stands at the beaches in Normandy. It’s such a sweet, summer treat! YUM

Enjoy
