Belgian waffles have larger squares and deeper pockets than American waffles. I make mine with nutrition boosters like whole wheat, flaxseed, cranberries and toasted walnuts. -Laura McDowell, Portland, Maine

These waffles are a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These waffles are a great make-ahead breakfast. I made a batch on the weekend and reheated them in the toaster during the week.

I'm not a waffle person, but these waffles changed my mind. They're so light and fluffy, and the cranberry-walnut topping is the perfect finishing touch.

These waffles are a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bag of frozen cranberries in my freezer, so it's nice to have a recipe that uses them up.

I'm not a huge fan of cranberries, but I really enjoyed these waffles. The sweetness of the cranberries balances out the tartness of the yogurt perfectly.

I love that these waffles are made with whole wheat flour. It gives them a nice nutty flavor and makes them feel more substantial.

These waffles were a hit with my family! They're so light and fluffy, and the cranberry-walnut topping adds a nice tart and crunchy contrast. I'll definitely be making these again.
