Dutch Waffles (Stroopwafels)

Indulge in the delightful world of Dutch waffles, or Stroopwafels, a beloved treat with a rich history dating back to the 18th century in the Netherlands. These warm, thin waffle cookies are perfectly caramelized and filled with a luscious syrup made from brown sugar and spices, creating a sweet symphony of flavors that will transport you to the streets of Amsterdam with every bite. Enjoy them fresh off the waffle iron or with a warm cup of coffee for an irresistible treat!

Serves 10

Ingredients

All-purpose flour
2 cups
Baking powder
1 tablespoon
Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Unsalted butter
1/2 cup, melted
Granulated sugar
1/2 cup
Brown sugar
1/2 cup
Eggs
2 large
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon
Dark corn syrup
1/2 cup
Cinnamon
1 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour until manageable.
  4. Divide the dough into 10 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.
  5. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the iron if necessary.
  6. Press each ball of dough into the waffle iron, cooking until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per waffle.
  7. While the waffles are cooking, prepare the filling by combining the brown sugar, dark corn syrup, and cinnamon in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
  8. Once the waffles are done, carefully split them in half horizontally while they are still warm, using a serrated knife.
  9. Spread a generous layer of the warm syrup filling on one half of each waffle, then gently press the other half on top to create a sandwich.
  10. Allow the filled waffles to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm or at room temperature!

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra touch, add a pinch of nutmeg or ginger to the filling for a spicier flavor.
  • 💡 Stroopwafels pair wonderfully with coffee or tea, making them a perfect afternoon snack.
  • 💡 To store, keep them in an airtight container to maintain their crispiness.
