Authentic Dutch Stroopwafel Recipe - Sweet Delights

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Dough

    In a large bowl, mix flour, brown sugar, melted butter, egg, vanilla, and water until a smooth dough forms.

    Let the dough rest for 30 minutes for better texture.
  2. Make the Syrup

    In a saucepan, combine corn syrup, dark brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves.

    Stir continuously to prevent burning.
  3. Shape the Waffles

    Divide the dough into small balls. Preheat a stroopwafel iron and flatten each ball in the iron.

    Cook until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Fill the Waffles

    Remove the waffles from the iron and slice them in half horizontally. Fill with syrup and press together.

    Serve warm for the best experience.
  5. Cool and Serve

    Allow the stroopwafels to cool completely before serving. Enjoy with coffee or tea.

    Store in an airtight container for freshness.
