Maple Pecan Waffles are a sweet and indulgent brunch, topped with toasted Fisher Nuts Pecans and perfect for Mother’s Day!

Maple Pecan Waffles Recipe from dineanddish.net

Brunch…it’s one of my absolute favorite meals. I wonder if that’s why brunch is such a popular thing to do on Mother’s Day? Is it because brunch gives mom enough time to sleep in while their family makes a brunch time feast? That’s not the way it is around here, but maybe my kids are just Mother’s Day slackers.

I’m kidding. My kids do a great job with Mother’s Day, but a fancy brunch feast isn’t usually a part of their plans (unless you count toast and grapes with peanut butter on them fancy). If I want brunch on Mother’s Day, the options are to either head to the nearest restaurant, or make it myself. It’s a good thing I love to cook, because making my own Mother’s Day brunch doesn’t seem like such a chore. In fact, cooking up a big, mid-morning meal for my family is one of my favorite things to do, Mother’s Day or not!

Friends, these Maple Pecan Waffles are just the addition to Mother’s Day Brunch you need. They are light, fluffy, sweet and nutty…they are my brother’s favorite waffles amped up for a special occasion.

What makes these waffles extra special is the addition of toasted Fisher Nuts pecan halves – and the toasting gets done right on the waffle iron, so that makes it extra simple too! If I had to make these waffles for my family for my own mother’s day brunch, I wouldn’t be sad. In fact, since I know that the end result to my labors is a fluffy and delicious waffle, full of sweet and nutty flavors, I’d be up and ready to make them in a heartbeat. Happy Mother’s Day to me, indeed!

If you want to toast additional pecans for garnish, this toasted pecans recipe will do the trick!

Fisher Nuts Pecan Halves

I choose to work with Fisher nuts because it is one of the only brands of recipe nuts entirely without preservatives. If you are inspired by this Maple Pecan Waffles recipe and want to search for other recipes featuring Fisher Nuts preservative free baking nuts, head to their website which is full of great recipes for Mother’s Day or any other day of the year.

Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 8 large waffles
Author Dine & Dish

Ingredients

  • 2 stiff beaten egg whites
  • 4 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 beaten egg yolks
  • 1 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 Tablespoons butter divided
  • 2 cups Fisher Nuts Pecan Halves coarsely chopped
  • Additional Fisher Nuts Pecan Halves and maple syrup for topping

Instructions

  • Beat egg whites until stiff. Beat in sugar and set aside.
  • Combine together flour, baking powder and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, combine egg yolks, milk, oil and maple syrup. Beat in dry ingredients. Add oil and beat until well blended.
  • Fold in the egg whites. Do not over mix, but make certain the egg whites are evenly distributed in the batter.
  • Preheat your waffle iron.
  • For each waffle, melt a small pad of butter onto the waffle iron. Add 1/4 cup pecans (or a generous handful) to the waffle iron. Close and allow pecans to toast for 2 minutes. Open the lid and add the amount of waffle batter your waffle iron recommends (typically 1/4 cup - 1/2 cup batter). Close and allow to cook until done, approximately 4 minutes. (Time may vary depending on your waffle iron.)
  • Carefully remove the cooked waffle, and place on a pan, pecan side up, to warm in the oven until all of the waffles are cooked.
  • Place leftover Fisher Nuts Pecan Halves for garnish onto the waffle iron with melted butter. Toast for 2 minutes.
  • Top cooked waffles with extra toasted pecans and maple syrup.

      My kids literally every year bring me breakfast – and it’s grapes smothered in peanut butter, and toast. I have no idea where they even got that idea, but I pretend to eat them (but never really do!) I think they think I love them!

    What temp do you set the oven to in order to keep the waffles warm? Just curious.
    Thanks,

      I put it on my lowest setting, which I think is either 200 or 250. Sometimes I preheat the oven to 350 then turn it off then put the waffles in to keep warm. I hope that helps!

      I know this is late – I’m so sorry! The oil needs to be mixed in with the wet ingredients. It looks like that was missed in the instructions and I apologize. I’ve updated the recipe and really appreciate you catching that!

Book Lovers Giveaway (read to the end)!!! ⬇️ ⬇️ 

Supporting my local independent bookstore @rainydaybooks looks a lot different than it used to these days. Temporarily gone are the days of lingering in store, browsing the shelves, walking out with an armful of books I didn’t expect to buy. The pandemic has made independent bookstores pivot in ways they’ve never had to before, but I’m so happy to say they are CRUSHING IT! And as we virtually celebrate Independent Bookstore Day on 4/24, I wanted to share a way you too can help keep Independent bookstores afloat now (and in the future).

Can’t believe we’re doing the college tour thing already with my second baby! 

So question for any of you who sent your kids to out of state schools or went to out of state schools...how did you do it? She wants to get the heck out of Kansas (I’d like to go with her!). We have money saved, she’ll most likely get a scholarship or two, she’s paying and has money saved as well...but even with that out of state tuition is a beast of an amount. So, did you just assume that student loans were going to be part of that life? And is that worth it to give your kids a shot at a new life outside of your home state? I wish I would have left Kansas for university, and have been here since I was born 😩. I want different for her if that’s what she wants but also just don’t have any experience with how people do out of state college! Any tips?

J is for...jam!

My friend @wakschmale makes the best strawberry jam...and I completely forgot about a jar she gave me last year until this morning. Which then inspired me to make my favorite buttermilk biscuits. So so good. Are you a jam, honey, just butter or plain biscuit fan? I love biscuits allll the ways, except with gravy. I have super bad memories of biscuits and gravy growing up. 🤢
.
I’m still slowly making my way through the alphabet for @kimklassen_innercircle a-z photo challenge. I’m bound and determined to finish. It may just take me a little longer than I originally anticipated 🤗.

It took me 2 months to get this Crispy Chickpea Pantry Pasta recipe up on the blog. 🤦‍♀️But it’s there now! You can find the link in my Instagram profile.

Also, just noticed Instagram took away the like count on posts. I kind of like that...what do you think?

I is for Inspiration!
.
The “long haul” effects of having Covid back in December are really presenting themselves lately. The continuous persistent headaches are taking a toll and the connection between the brain fog and word retrieval function of my brain has been extra challenging. I had no idea a couple months out, the cognitive effects would still be hanging around.
.
With that said, when I get a burst of inspiration I’m grabbing on for dear life. I made our favorite chocolate chip cookies recipe yesterday and felt the desire to update the blog post photos from 2007! We make these cookies all the time, so I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many years to give that poor post some new photos.
.
If you’re interested in the recipe you can find the link currently in my profile. Enjoy!!

H is for...high!

It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.
.
I can’t wait until travel becomes a regular part of life again. I’ve missed it so much!

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!
