Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Frozen waffles or homemade waffles
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron if making homemade waffles, or toast frozen waffles according to package instructions until golden and crisp.
In a small saucepan over low heat, gently warm the maple syrup. Do not let it boil. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.
Crack two eggs into the skillet, taking care not to break the yolks. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the eggs.
Cook the eggs for about 3 minutes, or until the whites are fully set but the yolks remain runny. Flip them carefully if you prefer over-easy eggs. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat for the remaining eggs using the other tablespoon of butter.
Place two waffles on each plate. Top each waffle with a fried egg.
Drizzle the warm maple syrup generously over the eggs and waffles.
Optional: Finely chop fresh chives and sprinkle them over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your sweet and savory creation!
