Chocolate Orange Waffles are a delicious way to start the day. Easy recipe perfect for special brunches or when you just fancy a treat!
Chocolate and orange is already a brilliant combination we know that. Together in waffles is delicious if I say so myself. For these I also add a little cinnamon to the mix. The cinnamon and orange work so well. Imagine a christmas sort of flavour. The cinnamon and chocolate work so well together too. It sort of makes the chocolate more intense.
I shouldn’t have to say it but just in case don’t eat the cinnamonstick.
It was just for the photograph.
There is a simple flavour (and smell) combination which brings me such joy every time I use them and that is orange and cinnamon. I decided to have a play and see if I could add them to my favourite breakfast – waffles! I am to report that they work a treat and the fresh orange slices I’m sure makes them a healthy breakfast(a girl can dream).
A beautiful breakfast of waffles really does make the day start well
Chocolate Orange Waffles
I really like nutella and orange. It is weird but it works. I add the orange juice to the mix with a little zest. Then have the chocolate spread on them so it melts into the waffles. Amazing! I usually top the waffles with oranges too as a little slice to enjoy.

Thank you so much Lucy. They are a super breakfast!
Nothing beats homemade waffles with tons of chocolate! I can only imagine the smell of cinnamon coming out of the waffle maker – heaven!
It really was! Everyone in the house wanted them once they could smell them!
Looks like a pretty good breakfast to me – it certainly has me googling ‘best waffle maker’!
They can be a little expensive but so worth it!
