There’s just something about berries and lemon that scream summertime! Our kids love waffles, so when I found this Blackberry -Lemon waffle mix, we had to try it! You guys, it is fabulous! Not only is it delicious, it is so simple to throw together. We love to top our waffles with lemon curd, fresh berries (blueberry or blackberry) and homemade buttermilk syrup (recipe below). They taste even better on these darling blue and white gingham plates with my favorite silver and gold bee flatware! I’ve linked everything you need to make these at your house below, including my favorite waffle iron.
I hope you love them as much as we do! My mother in law stocks up on the mixes and stores them in her freezer to keep them fresh longer.
