Creamy, rich, vanilla waffle sauce is the best possible topping for your favorite breakfasts.

For my family, Waffles-with-Waffle-Sauce is the only way to eat waffles. We pour Waffle Sauce over pancakes, German pancakes, waffles and french toast.

I’ve never served my grandmother’s Waffle Sauce to someone who hasn’t loved it, because this sauce has the ability to make an ordinary meal extra special.

Grandma's Waffle Sauce is like nothing else you've ever tasted. It's a must have for waffles and pancakes! get the recipe at barefeetinthekitchen.com

In 1938, my grandmother moved to the Canal Zone in Panama as a newlywed. While there, one of my grandfather’s Navy friends came to a waffle dinner at their house.

He offered to make his mother’s “waffle sauce” to serve with their waffles that night. Ever since then, my family has been making this sauce to serve with pancakes and waffles.

Have you ever used fresh nutmeg? It is my favorite spice to use fresh because the aroma and the flavor is unforgettable.

I started grating fresh nutmeg over my grandmother’s waffles with waffle sauce years ago and ever since I’ve been grating nutmeg every chance I get.

Don’t be intimidated by this hard as rock spice. It’s easy as can be to use and once you’ve tried it, you’ll likely be as hooked on it as we are.

The Best Homemade Waffles are crispy, fluffy, buttery, and they're everyone's favorite meal of the day!

I’ve updated my grandmother’s recipe below with a gluten-free variation in the notes for the recipe below. However, other than that recipe note, this is the same recipe she served me through my childhood.

My kids have been known to actually cheer when they see the white sauce on the stove.

Pour Waffle Sauce over waffles or pancakes for an AMAZING breakfast treat!

The Blueberry Waffles pictured here have been a big personal favorite over the past year.

I know, I know, I am pretty sure I said that about the Ham and Cheese Waffles and the Cheddar Bacon Green Chile Waffles too!

Banana Waffles, Pumpkin Spice Waffles, and Banana Coconut Pecan Pancakes are a few more of our favorite things to serve with waffle sauce.

Liege Waffles, Chocolate Chip Eggnog Waffles, and Quick Brioche Waffles would all be terrific with grandma’s sauce as well.

Waffles with Waffle Sauce

COOK’S NOTE: To grate fresh nutmeg, simply rub the whole nutmeg along the surface of a fine grater. (I love my Microplane for this task.) If you grate more than you need for the recipe, you can store the extra ground nutmeg in a small airtight container.

Waffle Sauce

  1. In a small saucepan, whisk together the flour and sugar. Add the milk and set the stove heat to medium. Whisk smooth and continue stirring or whisking frequently as it cooks.
