HOTEL WORTHY BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

A perfect breakfast for a winter morning......

One of our favorites in Kennebunkport

Why is it that hotels have THE most fabulous tasting waffles? Have you ever noticed that? I don't think that I've ever had a bad waffle when traveling around the United States. It's one of those "things" that made me want to try various recipes until I found the "perfect" one! And....I found THE ONE! 

The children would always order waffles for breakfast when we would have our morning breakfast at hotels...normally traveling for a soccer tournament. There was one hotel we used to stay at in Waco that had "to die for waffles!" The grandchildren LOVE waffles and we always leave this for Nick to prepare when we are at the beach for summer vacation. Luke is coming to visit in February, so I wanted to ensure, he could be pampered with his favorite waffles at Grandma's house! Here ya' go Luke.....come on down! This is where the good stuff is.......
