Toppings to serve with your waffles
If you’re following a low-sodium and/or low-carb diet, you’ll want to make sure your toppings fit with your nutrition goals. Besides that, the sky is the limit!
Personally, I like to keep it classic with sugar-free maple syrup and a pad of butter on top. To me, that combination just can’t be beat.
You can also chop up fresh berries to add some delicious flavor while keeping your carbs low. A drizzle of peanut or almond butter never hurts either!
Want to treat yourself? A handful or two of stevia-sweetened chocolate chips is my go-to! And of course, a little whipped cream on top always puts a smile on my face.
Storage
Leftover waffles make for a great grab-and-go breakfast throughout the week! You can store any extras in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days.
When you’re ready to enjoy, you can heat them up in the oven or toaster. I also think they’re pretty tasty straight out of the fridge.
