Zucchini waffles with bacon are a deliciously unique breakfast option that marries the earthy flavor of zucchini with the savory crunch of crispy bacon. These golden waffles are not only simple to prepare, but they also provide a delightful twist on traditional breakfast fare. Perfectly crisp on the outside and tender within, serve them drizzled with maple syrup or alongside fresh fruit to elevate your morning routine.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated
  • 4 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked and chopped
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup whole milk (or dairy-free alternative)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Grate the zucchinis and squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from heat and chop into small pieces.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix in milk and grated zucchini. Fold in the chopped bacon.
  5. Combine wet and dry ingredients until just mixed; it's okay if some lumps remain.
  6. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with cooking spray. Pour batter onto the iron (about half-full) and cook until golden brown (approximately 5 minutes).
