Looking for something special to make on Valentine’s Day? Mother’s Day? Father’s Day? Or really anytime you want to share a warm, chocolate, sweet berry treat with a loved one?
I’m a big breakfast fan. I love Pancakes, Waffles, Omelette’s, Granola, etc. Not just for breakfast! When my kids were younger we used to have “breakfast suppers.” French toast and pancakes were eaten at least once a week after an evening of swimming or hockey. When I was working retail and hadn’t had a chance to prepare supper earlier, I would whip up a cheesey omelette and toast for everyone. In fact, it was a preferred supper than picking up a fast food meal.
Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and I thought a twist on a breakfast supper would be a nice treat. Why not make waffles a bit fancier? Why not include dark chocolate and strawberries: 2 faves for Valentines Day.
I’ve made these gluten free waffles before in the recipe GF Salted Caramel Banana toasted Almond Waffles. However, this time I added 2 more ingredients to the mix, good dark cocoa and gluten free dark chocolate chips.
Heres the recipe again, but with added ingredients.
