Recipe for rye flour waffles

This recipe for rye waffles is so easy to make. The waffles are crispy, juicy and have a great taste of rye, which most people know from rye bread.

Ingredients for rye waffles

The waffles consist of very few ingredients that you may already have in your kitchen:

• Rye flour (regular whole grain rye flour with germ and husks)
• Milk (regular cow's milk or plant milk)
• Egg (size M/L)
• Baking powder
• Salt
• Butter (or oil) for frying

Since the waffles are mainly made from rye flour, they are packed with whole grains. Lots of dietary fiber and great taste. At the same time, you get protein from the eggs, and overall it makes for a satisfying meal, even if you mainly top the waffles with vegetables.

Toppings for food waffles

The waffles can be topped with all sorts of things, but try creme fraiche, hot smoked salmon, salad and dill. A truly delicious combination that goes perfectly with the crispy rye waffles. It would also be excellent as a small snack before dinner or for a buffet if you broke the waffles into triangles and topped them individually. The waffles would certainly also taste perfect with various baked vegetables such as bell peppers, cauliflower and eggplant. Preferably with a creamy dip such as hummus, haydari or baba ganoush . One tahini dressing or green pesto would taste so good too.

TIP: Also try to arrange the waffles as a decorative appetizer.
