I enjoyed these delicious lemon waffles for breakfast the other day. The tender, soft waffles were full of flavor. As suggested in the variations, I used the ginger option; but used candied ginger as it was what I had on hand. The waffles were so good. I dusted them with a little powdered sugar for garnish. Thank you so much gailanng for sharing this recipe with us.

These waffles are so good. I used canola oil instead of butter. They have a good taste of lemon. Yum! Thanks Gailanng :) Made for Holiday tag
