Why I Think You’ll Love This Recipe

  • Savory waffles are just as good as sweet ones and are a delicious reason to get that waffle maker out of your cupboard!
  • This is an easy one-bowl recipe; mix it all together and place it in the waffle maker!

Waffle Biscuits

The exterior of these bacon and cheddar waffle biscuits stays crispy, while the inside is soft and tender. The cheese melts throughout, adding a gooey, indulgent layer of flavor. These versatile biscuits are perfect on their own or paired with my Easy Eggs Benedict for breakfast.

Waffle Irons

There are two main types of waffle makers: the standard waffle maker, which produces waffles up to 5/8 inch thick, and the Belgian waffle maker, which can make waffles up to 1 1/2 inches thick. Any type of waffle maker will work with this recipe!

These Aren’t Just for Breakfast!

These were disappearing from the plate faster than I could make them for breakfast – the kids and Mike were topping them with butter while they were still hot from the iron and munching down on them.

However, these aren’t just a breakfast food, these are amazing to make to go along with soups or stews! Make them to go along with my Quick & Easy Instant Pot Chili, or Instant Pot Beef Beef Stew, or our family favorite Beef & Tomato Macaroni Soup.

Karlynn’s Tips & Tricks

  • Add some chopped chives and mix them in with the bacon! You can also add some garlic or onion powder and play around with spices and ingredients; the sky is the limit!
  • Make larger biscuit waffles, and then poach an egg and put it on top for a great breakfast.

As the name suggests, they are biscuits made using a waffle iron, resulting in a unique and delicious twist on a classic treat I’m sure you will enjoy. Try them and let me know what you think!

Happy Baking!

Love,

  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • cup milk

Instructions

  • Roll out the dough until it's 1/4 of an inch thick then cut out circles that fit in your waffle iron or squares.

    Hi Karlynn, this is the best website I have ever been to really enjoying it. I’m also looking for Ukranianian and Traditional ones Just wondering, as I haven’t looked through all of the recipes here yet. Would they be available later on perhaps. Thank You.

    Hey Karlynn, is the link broken? I had it open earlier today but now it says it’s not found.

      We are in the process of moving the website tonight, should have been seamless BUT of course it has some issues.
