SAY WHAAAAT ??

{{{{{{ CANNED BISCUITS }}}}} ?
CANNED BISCUITS to make WAFFLES....?
I read, on a blog that, for the life of me, I can't remember WHICH ONE...
that you could make some amazing waffles, really QUICK,
by using GRANDS FLAKY BISCUITS and your waffle iron.
HU ??                  GET OUT OF TOWN......!!
♥ 
I am such a semi-homemade girl and I LOVE BREAKFAST
so, of course, I had to give them a try.....all the time thinking,
"Why do this when you can buy the frozen ones already made....."
 ♥
 So, I placed these little raw rounds of goodness on the hot waffle iron,
sprayed first, of COURSE, with PAM,
set my waffle iron to just a few minutes, pressed down on the lid of the iron a little .... and
WALLA......
SHAZAM !!.....aren't they just about the cutest things...

MR. SWEET said they tasted amazing to have started out as a BISCUIT...and canned, at that..such a magical transformation...

Now, he like HIS waffles with EGGS...
and I do believe he added his warmed, MAPLE syrup to his waffles right after I took this photo...he didn't want that syrup to cool off one bit before he could plow into that stack....♥

I know you can make grilled cheese, pannine, probably a LOT of things in your waffle maker but I would never, ever have thought to put biscuits in there....
just blows my skirt up..!!
Now, ME ?.... I happen to love BLUEBERRIES and BLUEBERRY SYRUP,
warmed, of course.  ♥
My review of these UNUSUAL waffles ....
they taste GREAT...
I didn't get a sense of  "taste like a biscuit to me" feeling, AT ALL.  ♥
They aren't  light and fluffy like REAL waffles...
BUT....they are REALLY tasty...and .quick...
and I will be making these OFTEN.

 ♥
....AND, of course I discovered the answer to "why do this when we have frozen"...
THESE bad boys taste a LOT better, being cooked, fresh, in a WAFFLE IRON,
than the frozen ones, dropped into a TOASTER.
Cheaper, probably...altho I don't know that for sure. I have NOT done any price comparisons....
that's NOT MY FIELD.  lol 

Just look how pretty those waffles are....♪♪♫
do they LOOK  like a biscuit to you ? The cuteness was done in PhotoScape.

    BJ, You are so funny! Blows your skirt up?!?!? That cracked me up! Now that is a great idea. But I don't think I have a waffle thingie. I have to look in my cupboard. Obviously if I have one I have not used it in a long time and therefore have forgotten if I have one! LOL!

    Now I've never heard of cooking waffles out of canned biscuits. This is a first! I have a waffle iron that I use just a few times a year only because it's a hassle to get out and make the mix etc. So, we usually reserve it for special occasions, like Christmas and Father's Day etc. I'm glad you said it didn't taste like a biscuit, because that's the first thing that went through my mind when I saw it. Ha! May have to give it a try some day. I don't like frozen waffles at all!

    Wow! What an awesome idea!!! Will have to try these! My daughter was telling me, that there is a way to use cake mix to make "cake waffles," too. We may try them this coming weekend. Imagine they will be some kind of awesome, hot off the iron, with ice cream!
    I'll let you know how they do! :)

    Wow! I am so glad I found you today. Too bad you live in Texas, and I live in the damp cold woods of Southern New Jersey, where we're known for bugs the size of '57 Chevy's and some parts of these woods are rumored to be where the Philly and NYC mob dumps bodies. My 5 and 4 year old boys dig every so often in the backyard for the bodies. (Wonderful, right?) If I did live near you, I'd stop by for a cup of coffee and a waffle or two or three...you remind me of my beloved mother, who is about your age and is an original Iowa Farm Girl. Thank you for your blog!

    That is an amazing idea! Every time you post a waffle recipe I kick myself for getting rid of the waffle iron because I didn't think I used it enough for it to take up space. I'm giving myself quite a bruise. maybe I should keep my eyes open at Salvation Army for a back up!

  51. HeidiNovember 7, 2011 at 8:14 PM

    Haven't read all the comments, but I, too, love this idea. I've made French Toast on my waffle iron...it's darn tasty. I think I'll try this with the smaller, regular size Flaky biscuits.

    On the blueberry note, you can separate the layers of the Pillsbury Flaky Layers biscuits...at the lovely shortening points ;-) How about dropping a few blueberries in between the layers, and THEN waffling them? That sounds good, too, albeit a bit messy. (Wet paper towel on the still-warm iron after you're done.) Have you seen willitwaffle.com? Fun stuff.

    For the love of the English Language (and all others slaughtered now....) - it is not "Walla." The proper term is "Voilá." Defined as, "Used to call attention to or express satisfaction with a thing shown or accomplished." It is of French origin. Please, please, please - spell/utilize words correctly??

    I would never have thought of this. We got a waffle iron as a wedding gift (a million years ago) and after trying it a couple of times and having the waffles stick...I got rid of it. We only have waffles when we eat out these days!

    I just made these. I didn't have grands so just used a can of cheap biscuits. Worked great! Also the size was perfect for small children. I liked the fact that the cleanup was minimal. That's why I don't break out the waffle maker cause of the clean up.
