Liège waffles are a type of Belgian waffle known for their rich, sweet flavor and unique texture. Unlike traditional waffles, they are made with a yeast-leavened dough that includes chunks of pearl sugar, which caramelize when cooked, creating a crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior. These waffles are typically served warm and can be enjoyed plain or topped with various ingredients like whipped cream, fruit, or chocolate. Originating from the city of Liège in Belgium, they are a popular street food and are often enjoyed as a snack or dessert.
