This is one of those recipes that looks fancy but is actually super easy to make. A warm, golden Belgian waffle topped with fresh strawberries, juicy blueberries, and a generous drizzle of melted chocolate. Finished with a light dusting of powdered sugar—it’s simple, beautiful, and honestly hard to resist.
Perfect for a cozy breakfast, weekend brunch, or even a quick dessert when you want something special without too much effort.
Ingredients for Belgian Waffle with Strawberries and Blueberries
For the waffle batter:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 eggs (separated)
- 1¾ cups milk
- ½ cup melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the toppings:
- Fresh strawberries (sliced or halved)
- Fresh blueberries
- 100 g melted chocolate (dark or milk—your choice)
- Powdered sugar (for that final touch)
How to Make It
1. Make the batter
Start by mixing the dry ingredients in one bowl—flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
Combine everything, then gently fold in the whipped egg whites (this step makes the waffles extra light and fluffy—totally worth it).
2. Cook the waffles
Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it.
Pour in the batter and cook until the waffles are golden and slightly crispy on the outside.
3. Assemble the Belgian Waffle with Strawberries and Blueberries
Place your waffle on a plate while it’s still warm.
Add the strawberries and scatter the blueberries on top.
Drizzle the melted chocolate over everything—don’t be shy here.
Finish with a light dusting of powdered sugar.
Serving Ideas
- Best served warm so the chocolate stays soft
- Add whipped cream or a scoop of strawberry ice cream if you want to make it extra indulgent
- Pair with coffee, tea, or a glass of milk
- Great for brunch tables or even as a quick dessert
Toddler-Friendly Belgian Waffle Version (1+ year)
If you’re making this for little ones:
- Go easy on the chocolate or skip it
- Cut the waffle into small, soft pieces
- Use ripe, soft fruits
- Keep powdered sugar minimal
Tip: You can also make the batter a bit healthier with whole wheat flour or mashed banana for natural sweetness.
For Babies Under 1
I wouldn’t recommend serving this as-is for babies under 1.
It contains added sugar and chocolate, and the texture might not be ideal.
If you want to adapt it:
- Skip sugar and chocolate completely
- Serve soft waffle pieces
- Use mashed fruit instead of whole berries

What I really love about this recipe is how easy it is to make it look beautiful. Just let the chocolate drizzle naturally, keep the strawberries visible (both sliced and halved), and don’t overdo the powdered sugar.
Simple, cozy, and just a little bit indulgent—exactly how a good waffle should be.
Enjoy!
