These stuffed waffles couldn't be easier; you don't even have to make batter! They combine the flakiness and flexibility of puff pastry with the golden brown, crispy exterior of a waffle. Use one of the suggested sweet or savory fillings below, or experiment with your favorite flavor combinations to make the puffles of your dreams.
Ingredients
Makes 2 large waffles to serve 4
For the puff pastry:
For Almond Butter and Jelly Puffles:
For S'mores Puffles:
For Croque Monsieur Puffles:
Special equipment:
Step 1
Heat the waffle maker to medium-high heat and lightly flour your work surface. Unroll the pastry and cut it in half widthwise. Measure the cooking surface of your waffle maker. Roll each piece of pastry to the same width but double the length of your waffle maker. For example, if your waffle maker measures 8 inches square, roll each piece of pastry to an 8x16-inch rectangle.
Step 2
Divide the filling ingredients of your choice between the two pieces of pastry, distributing the ingredients evenly on one half of each piece of dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Lightly brush border with water. Fold the other half of each piece of pastry over like a book and crimp the edges to seal in the filling. (If your waffle maker is circular, trim the edges of the pastry to fit, then fill and seal.)
Step 3
Place one filled waffle inside the waffle maker and cook until golden brown and puffed, about 5 to 6 minutes each, depending on your piece of equipment. Repeat with remaining waffle. Cut each waffle into four pieces and serve topped with suggested garnishes.

Back to Top我特别喜欢吹牛不是try, so when I saw this I wanted to make it immediately. Sorry to say, that it was not good. Made a savory batch- ham and cheese with mustard. Dry and bland. Not to mention that it makes a complete mess of your waffle iron. I will not be doing this one again.

Drained crushed Pineapple n Cream Cheese piped on. Yumminess !! @ TINA1431: She clearly writes that you should leave a border, lightly dampen and crimp to seal.

i HAVEN'T TRIED THIS AS YET BUT WONDERED IF WETTING THE EDGE SLIGHTLY BEFORE CRIMPING WOULD SEAL IT BETTER???

We made these with : nutella, Hershey spread, Hershey spread with peanut butter, strawberry jam, and a mixture of cinnamon and brown sugar. All were fairly successful but if you use jam, use a very thick one--we used a freezer preserve and the jam oozed out the sides, making the waffle iron appear that it had been stabbed. The cinnamon-brown sugar version was really tasty with maple syrup, but you don't need a lot of filling. I hadn't rolled out puff pastry before and at first it was a bit of a struggle but it got a lot easier after the first one! We have a round waffle iron and even though I trimmed the corners there was still some undercooked overhang--but weirdly my kids loved that part.

I was so inspired by this idea, that I ran right out and bought some puff pastry. I had a friend for dinner and told her I had an arts and crafts project for dessert. We made our Puffles with shaved (high quality) chocolate and banana, a single layer of each on one half of the pastry sheet, which rolled out easily to 8.5 X 17... the perfect fit for the waffle iron. (we measured). I opted for shaved chocolate as I figured chips would not work as well, given that the iron has to close. While the magic happened in the waffle iron we made fresh whipped cream for dipping. Once golden brown and delicious, we dusted the warm pastries with powdered sugar , cut on the diagonal to expose the warm gooey filling and plated with a hefty dollop of fresh whipped cream. Oh Em Gee... delish! I'm already contemplating making a ham and cheese savory version with the second sheet of pastry that came in the package. Truthfully: one sheet makes 4 hefty servings, or 8 lighter treats. If anyone tries chips instead of shaved chocolate, let me know how it works. i didn't think the waffle iron would close well with the chips inside.

These made a huge mess of filling spilling out the sides of my waffle iron, they were a bit of a pain to assemble, and they were bland and dry. Neither as delicious nor as easy as good old fashioned buttermilk waffles made with batter.
