    No ordinary breakfast, gingerbread waffles are an easy indulgence and best served with tangy sour cream and tart lingonberry preserves (although, truth be told, they're delicious with any type of berry jam). For a special touch, use a heart-shape waffle iron.

      Me and my wife love this recipe. It is one of the few that you can make substutions to and it still works out. Yogart for the sour cream or what spices you have around that woud also work. This is a quick easy go to recipe in our house.

      these were great - smelled wonderful and tasted even better! I had some buttermilk to get rid of, so we used that in place of the milk and added a bit more sugar. I served them with a cranberry-orange compote.
