Brown Butter Waffles with Sweet Cherries

Nutty browned butter gives these square waffles a toasty, almost toffee-like aroma and extra crisp edges. Served simply with a handful of ripe, dark sweet cherries, they balance rich and fresh in every bite. A lovely early summer breakfast when cherries are at their peak and the table is set outdoors.

Method 5 steps

  1. Melt the butter in a light-colored saucepan over medium heat, swirling, until it foams and the milk solids turn hazelnut brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour into a bowl to stop the cooking and cool slightly.

  2. Whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl.

  3. Whisk the milk, eggs and vanilla, then whisk in the brown butter, scraping in the toasty bits. Stir into the dry ingredients until just combined.

  4. Preheat a square waffle iron and grease lightly. Cook the batter for 4 to 5 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown and release easily.

  5. Serve two waffles per plate with a generous pile of fresh cherries alongside and a light dusting of powdered sugar if you like.
