Ingredients

Scale
  • 150 grams of chopped fresh broccoli florets
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 ½ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ¼ cups whole milk
  • 56 grams melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle iron to ensure it is hot enough to make the outside crispy while keeping the inside tender.
  • Steam or blanch the chopped broccoli for about 2 minutes, then drain well and pat dry to avoid soggy batter.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika if using.
  • Beat the eggs with milk and melted butter until smooth in a separate bowl.
  • Gently pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, leaving a few small lumps to avoid overmixing.
  • Fold in the chopped broccoli and shredded cheddar cheese gently to distribute evenly but not crush them.
  • Spoon the batter onto the hot waffle iron to cover the surface. Close the lid and cook for 4 to 6 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  • Keep the cooked waffles warm on a wire rack in a low oven (around 200°F / 90°C) while finishing the remaining waffles to maintain their crispness.
