Chef notes

Sometimes life-changing discoveries happen by accident: penicillin, X-rays, Velcro and these savory-sweet waffles that will have you wondering, "Where have bacon waffles been all my life? Why are chicken and waffles getting all the attention?"

Picture it: I'm standing in my kitchen, extra waffle batter to my left and few slices of cooked bacon to my right. Could I be on the verge of a brilliant breakfast discovery? I combined the two and then poured that bacon-laden batter into the hot waffle iron and — ding! ding! ding! — what came out was more than a waffle, it was a breakfast miracle and the perfect transport system for bacon, butter and syrup.

Technique tip: The malted milk powder adds a dash of nutty sweetness. You'll find jars of it in the baking section of your grocery store.
