Ingredients
Waffles
4 pieces frozen waffles (whole grain or gluten-free)
Fruit
1 cup mixed fruits (strawberries, bananas, blueberries, kiwi)
Other
2 tbsp pure maple syrup
4 pieces wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
Toast the waffles: Toast the frozen waffles in a toaster until they are golden brown and crispy. Then, allow them to cool slightly to make handling easier.
Prepare the fruit: While the waffles are toasting, wash and chop the mixed fruits into bite-sized pieces to ensure they fit nicely on the skewers and are easy to eat.
Cut waffles: Cut each toasted waffle into quarters to create smaller pieces suitable for skewering.
Assemble skewers: Alternate threading the waffle pieces and the chopped fruit onto the wooden or metal skewers, creating a colorful and appealing pattern.
Drizzle syrup: Drizzle 2 tablespoons of pure maple syrup evenly over the assembled skewers to add sweetness and flavor.
Serve: Serve the skewers immediately to enjoy the crisp waffles with fresh fruit and maple syrup at their best.
Notes
You can customize the fruit selection based on seasonal availability or personal preference.
If gluten is a concern, be sure to use gluten-free waffles.
For a vegan version, verify that the waffles used are vegan-friendly or make your own.
Use wooden skewers soaked in water for 15 minutes prior to assembling to prevent burning if grilling is desired.
For added texture, sprinkle some chopped nuts or coconut flakes over the skewers before serving.
