Gingerbread Waffles


I got a waffle iron for my birthday in October and since have tried probaly ten recipes for waffles....look out...here they come! What isn't to like about waffles? Hot, fresh, filling, the aroma... And my boys scarf them done no matter what recipe I decide on. I gave them frozen Eggo waffles the other morning when I was rushed and they turned their little noses up at them saying they tasted funny. The boys loved these holiday gingerbread waffles though. They smelled so good cooking!( The waffles that is, not the boys...if clarification was needed.) My house smelled like Christmas all morning. We ate ours with maple syrup, but I also think these would be good with fresh whipped cream.
