PREPARATION
1. Prepare the Waffle Batter:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, milk and oil. Combine wet and dry ingredients until smooth. Stir in Maple Bacon Seasoning A Spice Affair to infuse the batter with a smoky maple depth of flavour.
2. Cook the Waffles:
Preheat and lightly grease your waffle iron. Pour in the batter and cook until golden brown and crispy on the outside. Keep warm while preparing the topping.
3. Prepare the Maple Vegan Bacon:
In a small bowl, mix maple syrup, olive oil and Maple Bacon Seasoning A Spice Affair. Brush both sides of the vegan bacon slices with the mixture. Cook in a skillet over medium heat for 3–4 minutes per side until caramelized and crispy.
4. Assemble:
Stack the homemade waffles, top with crispy maple vegan bacon and drizzle generously with warm maple syrup. For an extra flavour boost, lightly sprinkle more seasoning before serving.
