Nothing beats brinner (aka, breakfast for dinner!)
These homemade waffles are delicious as is, but are also endlessly customizable if you want to get fancy!
Brinner is life.
What are your thoughts on breakfast for dinner (i.e., brinner)? Sean and I are big, big fans. In fact, we had brinner tonight! I've made these waffles a few times now, and they're fantastic every single time.
They're a "classic" version of homemade waffles that can easily be dressed up any which way you choose. Want to add other spices? Maybe some chocolate chips or nuts? Feel like going crazy with toppings? Do it.
Where did this recipe come from?
I found this recipe on the blog Average Betty.

I'm a total brinner fan! Honestly, I hardly ever have waffles or pancakes for breakfast (ain't nobody got time for that) but I am allll about having them for dinner! Thanks for the inspiration. 🙂
Amen! You know, we very rarely do them for breakfast either. During the week, I'm more of a grab and go kind of person, and on the weekends I'm a slug and usually too lazy haha. Enjoy!
i haven't had waffles in a long time. yum!
All the more reason to make some ASAP =)
