About Waffles, plain, prepared from recipe

Waffles are batter cooked in a patterned iron until crisp outside and soft within, their signature pockets practically designed to cradle syrup and butter. A breakfast and brunch staple, they're close cousins of the pancake with a crunchier edge.

Like pancakes, the waffle is built on refined flour with some protein and calcium from milk and egg, and a little more fat than a pancake thanks to the richer batter. Plain, it's a moderate breakfast carbohydrate; loaded with syrup, cream and toppings, it climbs quickly into dessert territory.

The waffle itself is a fairly neutral base — it's the syrup, butter and trimmings that make the meal. Wholegrain batter and fruit keep it on the lighter side.
