My kids love when we go to a fancy brunch and they have a waffle bar where they can add all the ingredients they desire. Personally I never thought to replicate a waffle bar at my own house. Let’s face it moms,  who wants to sit over a waffle iron and make waffles for all the guests. Until one morning, I looked into my freezer and saw the numerous boxes of Eggo Waffles that I keep on hand for a quick weekday breakfast. We normally eat the Nutri Grain Blueberry Eggo Waffles, but I found a family pack of Buttermilk Waffles at Walmart and realized I can replicate a waffle bar with the ease of Eggo Waffles. Instead of all the candy and sugar you might find at a restaurant Waffle Bar, I decided to make even more special with the theme of a Peanut Butter & Jelly Eggo Waffle Bar.

Surprise your breakfast guests with this super easy, self serve Waffle Bar that the parents can sit back with a cup of coffee and let the kids fill their plates with a hearty Eggo Waffle Breakfast. While it might seem a little unusual,  peanut butter and jelly tastes amazing on a waffle. I set up 3 spreadable toppings, peanut butter,  chocolate nut spread and plain cream cheese for those not into the peanut butter idea.

Instead of sugar filled jams and jellies, I decided to provide bowls of fresh fruit such as blueberries, mixed berries, strawberries macerated in sugar and of course bananas. I love banana and peanut butter sandwiches. Fresh fruit might get expensive depending on the time of year, so pick up some frozen fruit.

Top it all off with a little honey, whipped cream and a few sprinkles to make it fun for the kids. I forgot to put out powdered sugar but all kids and adults like the extra dusting.

Our Waffle bar was a success and the kids got right into it. If you don’t want to have a toaster on the bar if you have younger kids, you can heat several waffles at once in the oven.
