Sure, Nutella is a little crazy on the sugar side, which is why we use our own homemade healthier Nutella. Woooo hoo! You haven’t made some yet? What are you waiting for?! Whilst it can be tempting to dive head first in to a jar of it, or just spread it on toast, there is so much more you can do with it. Like make these waffles!
I can’t remember the last time we missed our Sunday morning waffle tradition. It started when I was pregnant and I wanted to eat everything in sight and now Avery is eating whatever we eat, it has turned in to a nice little family tradition.
Waffles are pretty basic with the standard recipe, so we try to change it up each time so we don’t get bored. Is it possible to get bored of waffles? It’s not just about changing up the toppings, but adding different things in to the batter itself. Not just flavours, but texture too. Try adding some chopped up nuts to your waffle batter mix next time!
Don’t just stop at waffles, you can make Nutella pancakes with our homemade Nutella too and just add some to the batter. You will need to add a little extra liquid to your pancake so they aren’t really sticky from the Nutella. Make sure you don’t forget the strawberries - Nutella and strawberries are a dream combination.

If only you did a breakfast delivery service. I’m going to make these for Valentine’s Day breakfast and throw some raspberries on too.

I have made my own Nutella before, but it wasn’t any healthier. I do find Nutella too sweet though, so I will try your version and hope that it isn’t as sweet.
What a great idea to put some right in the batter.
Anna

I love Nutella and strawberries together and it’s always my favourite pancake topping. I need to try it on waffles too. Beautiful photos too Dannii xx

Oh no, I missed Nutella Day. I may just have to make up for it and eat this twice ;)
We got a waffle maker for Christmas and I must admit that we haven’t used it yet. I will crack it open at the weekend and make these for my boys. I am sure they will be very happy about that.

They look great, the sight of strawberries make me very nostalgic for summer though, I sw the first ones of the year in the supermarket last week and nearly feinted at the cost :o We grow around 50kg a year so probably best to wait :D ;)
