Nothing says good morning on the weekend like the smell of warm peanut butter waffles permeating the house. In fact, as a kid, the smell of waffles was about the only thing that could get me out of bed on the weekends! In my family, we spread peanut butter on top of our waffles, but in this recipe the goodness is baked in, requiring only pure maple syrup to finish it off perfectly.
