Homemade Classic Blueberry Waffles done right! Get ready for breakfast perfection!

Blueberry Waffles | Grandbaby Cakes

I have come a long way to make something like blueberry waffles on my blog.  I was a strange picky eating child.  I didn’t eat condiments (still don’t), ate everything plain, and hated adding fruit to any of my meals.  I loved pancakes and waffles but hated seeing blueberries or any other fruit in the batter.  It just didn’t make sense to me.  I am still wondering how I came to be in a family that eats everything and puts everything IN everything.

As I got older, I experimented a bit more here and there.  I finally embraced having just a few blueberries in my pancakes but trust me when I say that took a lot of time and prayer.  Seeing gorgeous blueberries at my farmer’s market this week gave me the courage to pick some up and try them in my waffles which was new for me.  In fact, even saying I made blueberry waffles is crazy!

These blueberry waffles were already delicious but the blueberries definitely added a great touch to them.  I added a bit of vanilla bean paste to them as well, and simply could not get enough of them.

Slathering these blueberry waffles in my mainstay of butter and pure maple syrup made them even better.  I will be trying these for breakfast time and time again.  I could definitely get used to this whole fruit in pancakes and waffles thing, especially if they end up tasting like this.

    Hi Jocelyn, your waffles look really good! Would have to try this out someday.
    Would you mind sharing what is the brand of the waffle maker that you used?

    Oh Jocelyn, waffles are probably my favorite breakfast (over French toast and pancakes) and that giant stack looks beyond incredible! The juicy blueberries and that amazing waffles texture *swoon* 🙂

      Gosh girl, I know right? I have no idea how I can be a picky eater at all but thank goodness I am moving in the right direction.

    I was the WORST eater as a child. Everything had to be plain. The food couldn’t touch other any other food on the plate. I basically survived off grilled cheese and PB+J until I was 15. And – this is weird – when I would eat waffles and pancakes (plain of course!) I wouldn’t let them touch my plate because of the little water/steam that forms when warm things touch a plate seriously grossed me out. My gosh. I don’t know how my parents dealt with me. And it’s funny that now I eat EVERTHING!

      Liz we were so alike it is scary. I had to have separate plates for everything so my food wouldn’t touch either!

    I can so relate to you. I was very picky – all my desserts were chocolate and my sandwiches just included meat & bread! I never liked things like blueberries and strawberries but now…I love both. We’ve come a long way and I for one am certainly glad I got more adventurous. I would dig right into these waffles!
