Nutty Waffle Sandwiches Recipes

WAFFLE SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a nonstick skillet, cook Canadian bacon over medium-high heat 1-2 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Remove and keep warm., In a small bowl, whisk egg and green onion; add to the same pan. Cook and stir until egg is thickened and no liquid egg remains., Meanwhile, prepare waffles according to package directions. Place 1 waffle on a plate. Top with Canadian bacon, scrambled egg, cheese and, if desired, tomato. Top with remaining waffle.

WAFFLED HAM AND CHEESE MELT WITH MAPLE BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the waffle iron on low.
• Spread a thin, even layer of butter on one side of each piece of bread.
• Pile the cheese and ham on the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, and put the open-face sandwich in the waffle iron as far away from the hinge as possible. (This allows the lid to press down on the sandwich more evenly.) Place the second slice of bread on top, with the buttered side up, and close the waffle iron.
• Check the sandwich after 3 minutes. About halfway through, you may need to rotate the sandwich 180 degrees to ensure even pressure and cooking. If you'd like, you can press down on the lid of the waffle iron a bit to compact the sandwich, but do so carefully-the lid could be very hot. Remove the sandwich from the waffle iron when the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
• Spread the Maple Butter on the outside of the sandwich. Slice in half diagonally and serve.

WAFFLED HAM AND CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron on high until just beginning to smoke. Reduce heat to moderate and brush generously with some butter.
• Spread butter on 1 side of 8 bread slices and turn slices over. Top 4 slices with 1 slice ham and 1 slice cheese, folding in any overhang, then top with remaining 4 buttered bread slices, buttered sides up. Cook sandwiches in batches (number of batches will depend on size of your waffle maker) until bread is golden and crisp, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Assemble and cook 4 more sandwiches in same manner.
• Just before serving, cut each sandwich into 4 triangles.
