These Thermomix buttermilk waffles are crispy on the outside and light and fluffy in the middle. The batter comes together quickly in the Thermomix, and the waffle maker does the rest.
Serve with berries and maple syrup, or go all in with Nutella, stewed fruit, or blueberry compote. They also freeze well, so you can enjoy waffles on busy mornings too.
