There are many different ways to bring in the changing seasons, but why not start with something simple, such as breakfast? Get the waffle iron hot; these seasonal recipes are something you are not going to want to miss.
Fall
As the leaves start to change colors and fall and the weather becomes a little cooler, pumpkin becomes an obsession from invading coffee shops to grocery store shelves. Take advantage of this while you can because before you know it, the seasons will begin to change again. When you go to your local grocery store, pick up a can of pumpkin and some apple cider and try pumpkin waffles with apple cider syrup for a fall spin on this traditional favorite.
Winter
Winter is right around the corner when you start to see gingerbread-housing kits on display at the end of each aisle in the store. What warms the heart more than when the snow starts to melt than the somewhat spicy but ultimately sweet taste of gingerbread? While decorations cover your house setting the holiday spirit, fill the stomachs of your guests with gingerbread waffles and cranberry maple syrup.
Spring
When the snow starts to slowly melt and everything begins to turn green, mixed with vibrant colors of different flowers, it’s time for spring. Along with spring are a lot of fruits and other produce that couldn’t survive the extreme temperatures of the winter. Beautiful blue starts to fill grocery stores as blueberries are now in season. Try lemon poppy seed waffles with blueberry syrup.
Summer
As everyone begins to gear up bringing out his or her bathing suits, summer is on its way. Cherries come into season for a short time between June and August. While fruit is a healthy choice, it becomes absolutely irresistible with chocolate. Try chocolate waffles with poached cherries when you’re craving something sweet. Every now and then, it’s time to cheat on that diet, although this may not be an ice cream cone, one of summer’s favorites, it’s sure to come close.
