Equipment To Gather
Let's Make Nutella Waffles!
Grab your waffle iron and preheat according to the package instructions.
In a medium bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder. Set that aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the eggs and sugar. Whisk well and add the melted butter and milk. Mix well.
Whisk in the Nutella until fully combined. After the Nutella is added, add in the flour mixture. Do not overmix at this point. Switch out the whisk and use a wooden spoon. It's ok if there are a few lumps left in the batter.
Grease the waffle iron with melted butter or cooking spray. Spoon some of the batter into the waffle iron and close the waffle iron. Cook until the waffles are cooked through and enjoy!
Tips and Tricks
- Depending on the size of your waffle iron will depend on how many waffles you can make. This recipe made 3 cups of batter.
- Do not overmix your batter once you add in the flour. Overmixing will cause the waffles to be tough, and not light and airy. It's ok if there are a few lumps left in the batter.
- If you are making a lot of waffles, cook the waffles in the waffle iron and place them on a baking sheet. Turn the oven on 200 degrees Fahrenheit and let them hang out in the oven until you are ready to serve them.
How To Serve Nutella Waffles
- Serve with more Nutella! To make the Nutella more pourable, place some Nutella in a microwave save bowl and microwave for 1 minute, stirring after 30 seconds.
- With maple syrup! Use the good stuff too! There's nothing better than some pure maple syrup!
- With homemade whipped cream! Add 1 cup of heavy whipping cream to the bowl of a stand mixer with 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar. With the whisk attachment, turn the stand mixer on high speed for 2-3 minutes until whipped cream forms.
- Topped with ice cream! Vanilla, chocolate, chocolate chip, or your favorite variety would all be delicious on these waffles!
- Topped with sliced bananas! Nutella and bananas go together like peanut butter and jelly!
- With other waffles! You can make a waffle bar and add peanut butter waffles and lots of other recipes to serve with waffles.
