Waffles are my favorite breakfast food, compared to pancakes and french toast. I love the taste, variety, and ease of making them just like with these Vanilla Bean Yogurt Waffles.

I have a good collection of waffle recipes here on the blog and I have another one to add in to the mix. This one incorporates Greek and vanilla bean. I love the texture and added protein that you get with the addition of the Greek yogurt. It also uses seltzer water which helps make a light texture.

The vanilla bean added an lovely intensified vanilla flavor to the waffles. Now a vanilla bean is the best way to get that wonderful vanilla flavor in these waffles. However, I know that vanilla has been super expensive for a bit now. Heck, I’ve now even switched to imitation vanilla which I would usually never do, but the price of vanilla was killing me. So 1 Tbsp of vanilla extract would be an acceptable substitution for the vanilla bean.

Since this waffle does have a more intense vanilla flavor, it is really great topped with some kind of fruit when serving. The fruit just pairs so well with the vanilla flavor.
