Eggnog Raspberry Waffles

Source: All Recipes

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 cups eggnog
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 cup raspberry preserves
2 cups raspberries
1 cup whipped cream, to garnish (optional)

Heat a Belgian waffle iron.
Mix the flour, sugar, and baking powder together in a mixing bowl. Stir in 1 cup eggnog, butter, and the egg until well blended. Add more eggnog if needed to make a pourable batter.
Lightly grease or spray the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour some batter onto the preheated waffle iron, close the top, and cook until golden brown and crisp on both sides. Waffles are usually cooked with steam subsides. Transfer waffles to a serving plate, and keep warm.

Meanwhile, place the raspberry preserves in a pan, and heat over medium heat until pourable.
To serve, drizzle raspberry preserves over each waffle, and top with raspberries. If desired, add a dollop of whipped cream to each waffle.

Makes about 5-6 Belgium waffles. I don't like drinking straight eggnog, but these waffles are really good. And, it's perfect mixed with the tartness of raspberries. I found this recipe last year and make it at least once a year around the holidays. Enjoy!
