Elaine prefers her mulberry waffles topped with butter and maple syrup or a sprinkle of powdered sugar, but Bruce likes his plain. The plain approach allows the natural sweetness of wild mulberries to come through. With mulberries, many cooks opt for less sugar in recipes, given the fruit’s inherent sweetness.
Yield: 8 to 9 waffles.
