      Belgian Waffles (Belgium) What are Belgian waffles? Waffles are the signature dessert of Belgium, originating with a recipe from the Middle Ages, when waffles were sold as unleavened crisp cakes made of barley and oats baked in a wafer iron.

      

In Belgium, there are two types of waffles: the Brussels waffle and the Liege waffle. The Brussels waffle is what is universally known as the Belgian waffle and is served with chocolate, fruit, or whipped cream. 



      The Liege waffle is baked from brioche bread dough and is said to be chewier, sweeter, and richer than the Brussels waffle. Popular Liege waffle flavors include plain, vanilla, and cinnamon.
