Pumpkin Coconut Belgian WafflesA couple of months ago we added a grand new tradition: Belgian Waffle Sunday. Every evening, when all the family is done with their various church schedules, we gather together for a waffle fest.

This meal — much to the chagrin of the avid carnivores among us — includes some variety of waffle (I try to find fun, new recipes or modifications to try) topped with appropriate fruit and/or butter and/or syrup and sometimes whipped cream.

Today we had the pumpkin coconut concoction with sugar free syrup, blueberries, and a squirt of real whipping cream.

I purchased a Waring Double Belgian Waffle Maker (with a large family, double sided is a necessity) and couldn't be happier.
