Two Ingredient Stuffing Waffles

Prepared Stuffing: There are so many choices for stuffing – cornbread, gluten-free, sage, pork, and a variety of herb-seasoned. This stuffing needs to be prepared according to the directions on the box (which includes the butter).

Eggs: Crack those eggs and mix them into the stuffing to help bind everything together.

Variations

  • Add chopped sausage or extra vegetables to the stuffing, but be sure they are cut into small pieces and add in moderation. There needs to be enough stuffing to keep the waffle together.
  • On a gluten-free diet? Use a gluten-free stuffing mix or a cornbread stuffing to suit dietary preferences.
  • Use these delicious waffles for a lunch or breakfast sandwich. Try a hot turkey sandwich using these savory waffles instead of bread? So yummy!

Holly’s Best Tips and Tricks

Don’t use stuffing that is too chunky or with large pieces of sausage or meat. If adding meat, slice it small!

Preheat the waffle iron for the best results and keep in mind that these stuffing waffles may take longer to cook than a regular one would.

To prevent them from falling apart, don’t peek!! 👀 They need to have a chance to cook through before opening the waffle iron to help them stay together.

Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Stuffing waffles can be reheated in the toaster, a toaster oven, or a regular oven.
