These Sweet Cream Waffles are extra rich and fluffy, thanks to heavy cream in the batter! They’re perfectly soft on the inside with a slight crisp on the outside—a decadent treat that’s perfect for a cozy breakfast or brunch. Top with fresh fruit, syrup, or whipped cream and enjoy!

Why You'll Love These Waffles

One of the most popular recipes on my blog is Sweet Cream Pancakes. I've been wanting to create a Sweet Cream Waffle recipe and have finally done it! And let me tell you, the result is EPIC.

These are THE BEST waffles I have ever had in my life. No joke. They are definitely not the most diet friendly, but trust me, they will make a great cheat day treat!

The waffles are full of sweet cream flavor which makes the batter extremely thick, definitely thicker than any waffle batter you might be used to. They are pretty delicate as well. You'll need to be careful when removing them from your waffle iron.

The best way I found to do this was to carefully lift a corner of the waffle with a fork, and slide a plate right under it.

These waffles are so yummy and sweet, you might not even need syrup! Just sprinkle on some blueberries or chopped strawberries and top them with some whipped cream and you will be in heaven! But you might want to try this Sweet Cream Cheese Syrup. You won't regret it!

Ingredients

*Ingredient amounts are located in the recipe card at the end of this post.

  • All-Purpose Flour- To make sweet cream waffles, you will need to use all-purpose flour.
  • Sugar- Standard granulated sugar adds a sweetness to this waffle recipe.
  • Baking Powder- A leavening agent that helps the pancakes to rise when cooking.
  • Baking Soda- Another leavening agent for fluffy waffles.
  • Salt- A little bit of salt helps to enhance the flavor and sweetness of Sweet Cream Waffles.
  • Malted Milk- This is one of my favorite secret ingredients to add to waffles. It takes the flavor up a notch and is a key ingredient in my Crispy Mickey Waffles recipe!
  • Heavy Cream- This ingredient adds to the texture an richness of these waffles.
  • Melted Butter- Although I prefer to use vegetable or canola oil to make crispy waffles, for this recipe, melted butter really makes these waffles flavorful.
  • Eggs- Eggs will help bind the waffle batter together while baking.
  • Vanilla Extract- I love to add vanilla extract to sweet breakfast items and baked goods. I prefer to use pure vanilla extract, but imitation will work as well. You can usually find a good price on pure vanilla at Costco.

Directions

[Step 1] To make Sweet Cream waffles, begin by sifting or whisking the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and malted milk together.

A measuring spoon pouring salt into a bowl of dry ingredients to make Sweet Cream Waffles.

[Step 2] In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla together. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.

[Step 3] Mix them together with a silicone spatula to make sure you incorporate it all together. The Batter will be THICK.

[Step 4] Turn on your waffle iron. When it is ready, spray both sides with cooking spray and use a ¼ cup cookie scoop to add the batter.

[Step 5] For my waffle iron, I need a little more than 3 scoops to make a complete waffle. You may need to play around with the number of scoops you'll need, depending on the size of your waffle iron.

[Step 6] When making the Sweet Cream Waffles, I ended up leaving them in the waffle iron a little bit longer than when the indicator light came on. Make sure they are golden brown in color.

[Step 7] As I stated earlier, the waffles are very fragile. If you aren't careful, they can break easily. The best way to remove them from the waffle iron is to gently lift a little bit of the waffle with a fork and slide a plate under it.

Now you can enjoy your delicious waffles however you want! Whether with butter and maple syrup, fruit and whipped cream, or ice cream and chocolate sauce. I won't judge.

    First time I ever used my double Belgian waffle maker and this recipe was delicious! I had no issues whatsoever getting the waffles out of the maker. They were sooo yummy. Light, not too sweet, and looked beautiful. I got 6 1/2 total waffles for my family of 3. There’s 1 1/2 left for my daughter’s breakfast and she’s glad! Excellent recipe which helped me use up leftover heavy cream.

    I was gonna comment best part of pancakes is you can make waffles from them- and then there was a waffle recipe separately! Love waffles and so fun with my grandkids!

    What is "malted milk?" Do I have to use it? Does it make it taste like malted milk balls?

    • Mindy says

      March 21, 2020 at 1:53 pm

      Here is the definition: Malted milk is a powdered gruel made from a mixture of malted barley, wheat flour, and evaporated whole milk. The powder is used to add its distinctive flavor to beverages and other foods.

      You don't have to use it, it just adds a great flavor to the waffles. It is used in malted milk balls. Hope that helps!

    Finally, a great FLAVORED waffles and pancakes. You are able to eat it without syrup. It was delicious and pillowy soft on the inside - just the way I like it. I look forward to making the Sweet Cream Cheese Syrup. Thanks for a great recipe.

    I thought the recipe on the Bisquick box was sufficient, but I was wrong. I used Carnation original malted milk, which I mention only because it was not familiar to me.

    Holy cow were these phenomenal! I should not have eaten two whole waffles, but I did.

    These are cream-sweet, rather than sugar-sweet, and they are mucho yummo. The outside is not crispy, like some people might prefer, but these are very similar to Waffle House waffles. This is now my go-to waffle recipe.

    Thanks for a great one!

    Wow, we're these delicious! I can't stop talking about them! I even made mistakes and had to improvise on more than a few occasions and they we're still phenomenal! 2 Teaspoons Baking Powder (accidentally used 2tbsp); 1 Tablespoon Malted Milk (didn't have so omitted); 3 Cups Heavy Cream (only had 2c so added 1c whole milk); 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract (only had 1/4 of both vanilla and almond for a combined 1/2 tbsp of extract). I added a ripe banana to the mix as well and OMG! They were very delicate, sliced like butter and quite moist. Thank you so much for the recipe. I'm now afraid to try it without my mistakes and improvisations! Holy cow!
