Ingredients
-
Stroop filling:
7 oz Dutch Stroop (⅔ cup (see note))
4 oz brown sugar (½ cup)
3 oz unsalted butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon table salt
Waffle Dough:
2 oz whole milk (¼ cup, warm)
2 ¼ teaspoons dry yeast (7 g or 1 packet)
2 large eggs (room temperature)
6 oz unsalted butter (melted)
5 oz granulated sugar (⅔ cup)
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon table salt
15 oz all purpose flour (3 cups, see note)
Directions
Combine 7 oz Dutch Stroop, 4 oz brown sugar, 3 oz unsalted butter, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamonand ⅛ teaspoon table salt in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the sugar and butter are melted and the mix just comes to a boil. Transfer the filling to a bowl and set aside to cool.
Combine 2 oz whole milk and 2 ¼ teaspoons dry yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer or in a large mixing bowl. Use the beater and mix until the yeast is dissolved. Add 2 large eggs, 6 oz unsalted butter (melted) and 5 oz granulated sugar.
With the mixer running on low, add ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon and ¼ teaspoon table salt. Add 15 oz all purpose flour and mix until most of the flour is incorporated. Turn the dough out into a lightly floured surface and knead into a ball. The dough is quite soft.
Divide the dough into 18 pieces, each piece should weigh about 50g. Roll each piece to a ball and line them up on a sheet pan. Cover with plastic wrap and set the dough aside for 1 hour.
Preheat the waffle iron. Take a ball of dough and flatten it to a disc. Place it on the waffle iron and close the iron.
Bake until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Use a fork to lift the waffle off the iron. Immediately use a knife with a thin sharp blade to split and open up the waffle. Generously spread the inside of the waffle with stroop (about a tablespoon) and sandwich the two halves together. Continue with the remaining dough.
