What Makes the First Watch Belgian Waffle So Special?

First Watch Belgian waffle adorned with berries and drizzled with syrup.

The secret is in the balance. First Watch Belgian Waffles are crispy on the outside and soft like a cloud inside. Made with real butter, cage-free eggs, and unbleached flour—no mixes, no shortcuts, just fresh, homemade flavor every time.

Four-step guide to making a First Watch Belgian Waffle, showcasing ingredients, mixing, cooking, and serving.
  • Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently to mix.
  • Whisk the wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.
  • Combine the batters: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix; a few small lumps are okay.
  • Preheat and grease the waffle iron: Heat your waffle maker according to its instructions, and lightly brush it with butter or nonstick spray.
  • Cook the waffles: Pour about ½ cup of batter into the waffle iron. Close the lid and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp on the outside.
  • Serve and top: Remove the waffle and place it on a plate. Top it with warm berry compote and a light dusting of powdered sugar, just like they do at First Watch.
