Description
A delightful blend of sweet maple syrup, crispy bacon, and juicy beef patties, all hugged by warm waffles.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 frozen waffles
- 6 strips bacon
- 2 slices cheese (cheddar or your favorite)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
- Form the mixture into two equal patties, slightly larger than the waffles.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon until crispy, about 6-8 minutes.
- Remove the bacon and reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat in the pan.
- Increase heat to medium-high and cook the patties in the bacon fat for 4-5 minutes on each side, adding cheese in the last minute to melt.
- Toast the waffles until golden brown and crispy, brushing them lightly with maple syrup.
- Assemble by placing one waffle down, adding the cheese-topped patty, three strips of bacon, and another drizzle of maple syrup before topping with a second waffle.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the warm indulgence.
