Blueberry Waffles

There is no better way to enjoy blueberry picking season than my blueberry buttermilk waffles! I make my waffles super light and fluffy. Then I add blueberries that get all juicy and saucy when these are cooked up. They are perfect y’all! The outside is firm and crispy while the inside is soft and tender. Add some of my candied bacon and get into it.

Notes

  • It was a sticky mess to clean up the waffle maker after using the blueberries because I didn’t spray both sides. This is good to know in case anyone comments on it or if you want to share it in the blog post to help others not make the same mistake.

Storing Blueberry Waffles

Store any of your leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Can you freeze leftover waffles? Yes! You may even be making enough blueberry waffles so you can freeze them. If you’re using a regular waffle maker this will be nice in the mornings for popping them in the toaster before serving.
Before freezing I recommend letting them cool completely, then stacking them flat in a Ziploc bag layered between parchment paper. Remove as much of the air as you can before sealing. This will make removing them easier.
Frozen waffles will keep for several months when frozen properly.

Reheating Blueberry Waffles

You can still get crispy reheated waffles. There are a couple of ways to do this.
  • Pop them in the toaster to heat through.
  • Warm in a 350 F preheated oven on a baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  • It’s also likely that you can reheat waffles in an air fryer, I have not tested this however.
