How to Serve Stove Top Stuffing Waffles
Serve the waffles hot with your favorite dipping sauces or toppings. They pair well with gravy, cranberry sauce, or even a drizzle of maple syrup for a sweet touch. You can also add some fresh herbs or cheese on top to enhance the flavors.
How to Store Stove Top Stuffing Waffles
To store leftover waffles, place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be kept for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can freeze them. Just wrap each waffle in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer bag. They will stay good for about a month.
Tips to Make Stove Top Stuffing Waffles
- Make sure the stuffing is completely cooled before mixing in the eggs and chicken stock. This helps the mixture bind well.
- Experiment with different types of stuffing, such as adding vegetables or herbs to change the flavor.
- If you do not have a waffle maker, you can also cook these in a skillet, flattening them with a spatula.
Variation
You can make these waffles even more interesting by adding cheese or bacon bits to the stuffing mixture before cooking. This will give you a savory kick and a nice texture.
FAQs
