Waffles with PB Sauce + Fruit

I have been craving waffles for weeks now, so I finally bought some (the frozen kind) during the grocery shop with week.  I haven’t made anything interesting or creative lately, so I decided to try to do something different with the waffles this morning. Here is what I came up with.

Waffles with PB Sauce + Fruit

To make the peanut butter “sauce,” heat ~ 1 tbsp of pb in the microwave for ~ 15 seconds, to get it soft + warm.  Add 1 tbsp water and stir to make a paste.  Microwave again for ~ 15 seconds.  Add another approximate tablespoon of water and mix to a thick sauce consistency. 

Layer toasted waffles, pb sauce, and a tiny bit of maple syrup (preferably 100% pure, obviously). You really don’t need much syrup because of the sweetness + consistency of the sauce.  Add fresh fruit on top.

This was really, really good – very decadent!  I loved the combination of pb + strawberries – in a way, it tasted like a caramel apple.  I also liked the pb + syrup flavor combo.  Will definitely be making this again.
