Instructions 👩‍🍳

Step-by-step:

Prepare the Parmesan and butter: Finely grate the Parmesan. Melt the butter and let it cool enough to combine with the eggs without setting them. Refer to the illustrated recipe for ingredient quantities and preparation details.
Combine the dough ingredients: Whisk the eggs and melted butter together. Mix flour, baking powder and salt separately, then incorporate them into the egg mixture.
Fold in the cheese: Work the Parmesan into the mixture until evenly combined and no pockets of flour remain.
Bake the waffles: Prepare the waffle iron and distribute the mixture across its plates. Bake until the cheese waffles are golden and cooked through.
Keep the edges crisp: Lift out the waffles and place them separately on a rack rather than stacking them. Serve with their crisp edges intact.

Savory cheese waffles with Parmesan

Golden edges, plenty of Parmesan and a salad on the side: these cheese waffles make a lovely easy dinner. Nibble a crisp corner while the next waffle bakes, then bring the warm waffles to the table.

Parmesan goes into the batter

Finely grated Parmesan gives the waffles their salty, nutty flavor. The remaining ingredients are all-purpose flour, eggs, butter, baking powder and salt. Eggs and butter bind this thick mixture; it is spooned into the iron rather than poured like a thin pancake batter.

Grate the cheese finely and loosen any clumps. Melt the butter, then let it cool until just warm so it will not cook the eggs when you mix them.

Mix, spread and bake through

Preheat the waffle iron and grease its plates if the manufacturer recommends it. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in one bowl. Whisk the eggs with the cooled melted butter in another. Stir in the flour mixture, then fold in the Parmesan, stopping once everything is combined and no dry flour remains.

Spoon a portion onto the hot plates and spread it gently, leaving space around the edges for expansion. Close the lid and let the waffle set before trying to open it. Bake until golden and cooked through. Check the first waffle inside: the center should be set, with no wet batter. If it browns too quickly, reduce the setting where possible and use a smaller portion.

Lift the waffle with a heat-resistant utensil suited to the plates. Place it on a rack in a single layer so steam can escape. Do not taste raw batter; raw flour and eggs can carry germs. Wash hands, tools and surfaces after mixing, and keep raw batter separate from finished waffles.

Add something cool and crisp

Serve mixed green salad with yogurt dressing alongside. Romaine, cucumber and red pepper bring crunch to the warm, savory waffles. Keep the salad in a separate bowl so its dressing does not soak into the edges.

Find your scoop size

Use the first waffle to judge how much mixture fills your iron comfortably. Keep subsequent portions similar for more even results.

Optional herbs

Washed, dried and finely cut chives add a gentle onion flavor. Fold them into the batter if you like, or scatter them over a separate spoonful of sour cream.

Prepare the cheese ahead

Grate the Parmesan in advance and keep it covered in the refrigerator. Set out the rack and serving dishes before mixing so each finished waffle has somewhere to go.

Frequently asked questions

Why did the waffle tear?
The lid may have opened before the batter set. Check the iron's greasing instructions and give the next waffle time to firm up.

Why have the waffles gone soft?
A hot stack traps steam. Keep waffles in one layer and add any moist topping just before eating.

How do I save leftovers?
Refrigerate promptly in shallow containers at 40°F (4°C) or below, within two hours or one hour above 90°F (32°C). Use within three to four days. Reheat to 165°F (74°C), checked with a food thermometer; store perishable toppings separately.
