    Who doesn't love Oreos? There is something just nostalgic about them. I mean they are the best-selling cookie in the world for a reason.

    And I love to use them in recipes - from Oreo donuts to cookies and cream ice cream. Shoot, I even have a recipe for homemade Oreos.

    And my latest concoction is this Oreo waffles recipe. You take a basic Belgian waffle and add some crushed Oreos in the batter and whipped cream on top. I mean come on!

    So if you are looking in mixing it up for breakfast, these waffles should be at the top of the list!

    Ingredient Notes

    • Oreos - can't have Oreo waffles without them. You can just buy the grocery-store version if you want.
    • Baking powder - important in helping create that rise out of the waffles which contributes to the texture on the outside and inside.
    • Eggs - by separating the yolks and whites, you beat the whites to incorporate air which contributes to fluffy waffles.

    Ingredient Swaps

    As with any recipe, you can mix up the ingredients. Some variations include:

    • While I like double stuffed Oreos, you can use your favorite flavored Oreo.
    • Sub the granulated sugar for light brown sugar or even coconut sugar.
    • I like the extra fat from whole milk, but skim or dairy free milk will work too.
    • Canola oil is what is in my pantry most times, but another flavorless oil like vegetable oil.

    Mix together the dry ingredients in a bowl. In another bowl beat together the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

    Mix together the wet ingredients with the egg yolks then stir into the dry ingredients. Gently fold in the egg whites until combined.

    Heat waffle iron according to instructions and add batter. Cook for about 5 minutes or until done.

    Belgian vs. Regular Waffles

    Belgian waffles are thicker and than regular waffles because they are made with a deeper grid waffle iron. The batter is also different as it usually doesn’t have eggs or a leavening agent which helps make it light and fluffy.

    However you really can use whatever batter you want in either type of waffle maker and it will work.

    These waffles were actually made in Belgian waffle maker and turned out great!

    FAQs

    Does It Matter What Oreos I Use?

    No. Use your favorite flavor. For these I used double stuffed Oreos.

    Is Beating the Egg Whites Necessary?

    Yes if you want the Oreo waffles extra fluffy. By beating egg whites, you incorporate air which is key to making your waffles super fluffy. It takes just 3-5 extra minutes but is worth the time!

    How Do I Know My Waffles are Done?

    Some irons tell you via a light or a beep like mine. However if your doesn't a good clue is to wait until the steam has stopped seeping out its sides.

    Why Aren't My Waffles Crispy?

    In general, a Belgian waffle maker makes a crispy waffle where a regular one makes a softer waffle so it depends on which you use.

    How Do I Keep My Waffle Crispy?

    To keep the Oreo waffles from getting cold while cooking the others, place in a 200°F oven. Just place directly on the oven rack.

    How Do I Make Homemade Whipped Cream?

    Whipped cream is surprisingly easy. In a large bowl, add 1 cup cold heavy cream, 1-2 tablespoon sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Use a whisk attachment and beat until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.

    Homemade Waffle Tips

    • Waffle Maker: Using a good waffle maker is half the battle. You will want a cast iron on non-stick model. If it has a done indicator, even better.
    • Fat Ratio: Waffle batter should be a similar consistency to pancakes, but the difference is waffles have more fat, whether it’s melted butter or oil.
    • Baking Powder: Baking powder gives the waffle a better rise than baking soda, but you can use baking soda in a pinch.
    • Don’t Overmix: It is ok for the batter for these Oreo waffles to be lumpy. It is better to have some lumps than overmix.
    • Sacrifice First Waffle: The first waffle should be used to figure out how much batter you need and the level of doneness you want.
    • Don’t Peek: Let the waffle iron do its work and don’t continue to open it. Rely on the indicator if it has one and if it doesn’t, look for steam coming out of the side which indicates that it is done.
