Truth: Brunch is the very best meal there’s. One other truth: Making brunch at dwelling with pals simply hits completely different. (Okay, advantageous each are technically opinions, however nonetheless… am I flawed?)
I have been a fan of brunch since earlier than I even knew the phrase, as a result of breakfast meals at any time of the day have all the time been my favourite. And though I like going out to splurge on a pleasant restaurant expertise each occasionally, my roommates and I’ve gotten right into a routine I like the place we make somewhat little bit of every thing at dwelling so we are able to all have a mixture of our favourite candy and savory brunch meals (at a approach cheaper worth level than going out each Saturday or Sunday morning).
I used to be searching for some new concepts to convey to the brunch desk after I stumbled upon the Sprint Waffle Stick Maker, which is lovable, compact, and on sale for $27 till Dec. 17. Since I’ve all the time erred on the facet of candy brunch meals and I like attempting out new kitchen gear, I knew I needed to attempt it out.
Though there’s a little trial and error with determining how a lot batter to pour in (it appears I am a persistent over-pourer), the waffle stick maker was straightforward to make use of and the waffle sticks themselves turned out superbly.

Very like french toast sticks, the enjoyable of those waffle sticks comes from the power to eat them like a finger meals (no judgment for those who determine to go the fork and knife route although) and dip them in syrup like a hen finger in ketchup.

There are such a lot of artistic makes use of for these waffles past consuming them as is, too. My roommates and I’ve added them to ice cream for each a cute ornament and a delicious topping, and are planning on dipping the tops of a batch in chocolate with some festive sprinkles for our vacation brunch celebration, the place they’re certain to be successful. The waffle maker additionally comes with 5 recipes that can assist you get these artistic chef juices flowing.
Relating to clean-up, the leftover batter comes off the non-stick floor fairly simply—ensure you anticipate it to chill down earlier than making an attempt to scrub it, although.
