Ingredients

For the Strawberry Waffles:
  • 16 ounces fresh strawberries
  • 1 batch Blender Whole Wheat Waffles or your favorite waffle recipe or mix
For the Maple Whipped Cream:
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your waffle iron. Cut the tops off of the strawberries, slice, and set aside. If you like, preheat the oven to 200 degrees F to keep the waffles warm between batches.
  2. Prepare the whole wheat waffle batter according to the recipe, then cook following your waffle iron's instructions. If desired, place the waffles on a baking sheet and keep warm in the preheated oven until you are ready to serve.
  3. With an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium high speed until it starts to thicken. Add the maple syrup, then continue mixing on high until very fluffy and still peaks form.
  4. To serve, slice the waffles into halves or quarters, then layer with the strawberries and maple whipped cream. Top with additional strawberries and more whipped cream (really, you can't have enough of the maple whipped cream here). Enjoy immediately.
