Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large waffles (homemade or store-bought)
- 1 lb ground beef (formed into 2 patties)
- 4 slices of bacon, cooked until crispy
- 2 slices of cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp butter (for greasing)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Optional: lettuce, tomato, or pickles for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the waffles: Prepare homemade waffles or toast store-bought ones until golden brown.
- Cook the bacon: In a skillet, fry the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- Cook the patties: Season the beef patties with salt and pepper. Cook on medium heat in a skillet or on the grill for about 4-5 minutes per side.
- Melt the cheese: Add a slice of cheddar on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.
- Assemble: Butter one side of each waffle. Place a patty on one waffle, add the bacon, and drizzle with maple syrup. Add optional garnishes if desired, and top with the second waffle.
Notes
- For a sweeter experience, try adding extra maple syrup or honey.
- You can use different types of cheese for variety, such as gouda or Swiss.
- Substitute ground beef with turkey, chicken, or a veggie patty for a healthier option.
