Red Velvet Waffles w/ Cream Cheese

Whatever you call it, these soft and fluffy red velvet waffles are a delightful treat. Topped with a light and creamy layer of whipped cream cheese and fresh, juicy blueberries, they offer the perfect balance of sweetness and tanginess.

Tip: Add a dollop of this homemade date-based Nutella for richer, more decadent waffles. Enjoy!

For the waffles:

• 200 g flour
• 10 g baking powder
• 100 g sugar
• 3 tbsp cocoa
• 200 ml cooking cream or whipping cream/yogurt
• 3 eggs
• 1 tbsp vanilla essence
• red food coloring, as needed (about 1–2 tbsp liquid or 2–3 tsp gel/powder)

Optional:

• fruit or powdered sugar for decorating

Instructions

• Mix all the waffle batter ingredients in a large bowl until smooth and lump-free.
• Pour 2–3 tablespoons of batter (or enough to lightly cover the grid), depending on the size of your waffle maker. Make sure it is hot enough.
• Bake until the waffles are firm but fluffy. Repeat until you run out of batter.
• In a second bowl, mix the cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth, light, and creamy.
• Spread each waffle with cream, add plenty of blueberries and repeat to stack as many waffles as you like, creating a small red velvet waffle “cake.
• Decorate with extra fruit and powdered sugar.
