Just replaced my waffle maker and am a big fan of waffles both savoury and sweet.
From my experience, recipes vary so much and results can go from dense and soft to light and crispy. I treat making savoury waffles akin to making cheese toasties by chucking in bits of ham, chopped onion and cheese. I have even gone as far as to using a lot of egg and grated par boiled potatoes to create some sort of waffle shaped hash brown.
I wanted to ask OCuk members what your best waffle recipes and what the waffle is like?
My girlfriend is of the opinion that crepes are better, so i need your help to sort this out.
My personal favourite is to make a standard Belgian waffle mix but separate the egg white from the batter. Add a bit of sugar and vanilla/lemon and whisk into a kind of meringue like foam. Then i fold the foam into the batter and cook that bad boy. Then dust with more sugar and eat with Nutella and crushed nuts.

I keep meaning to find a decent recipe but just haven't had time, any pointers?
