Recipe for rye bread waffles
My take on cozy small waffles, made with a “rye bread dough.”
I had trouble getting my 4-year-old daughter to eat her rye bread sandwiches in kindergarten until I came up with this idea:
Strongly inspired by a South Jutland rye bread recipe, I make these, which both she and my 1-year-old son take to their child care. They are eaten with great enjoyment, and the biggest “disadvantage” is that I have had to explain to the educators that they are not regular waffles (which they are not allowed to bring).
Unfortunately, the recipe makes them quickly become soft, but the kids haven’t complained about it yet.
