Working time approx. 30 minutes; Rest time approx. 20 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 20 minutes

as dinner, for 9 waffles in a heart-shaped iron

Finely dice the bacon and fry in a pan, then set aside. Whisk the eggs with the milk and cream. Combine the flour with the baking powder, salt, pepper, and paprika to taste, then whisk vigorously into the egg mixture, or use a mixer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and the rendered bacon (including the fat if there isn’t too much). Let the batter rest for about 15-30 minutes. Bake the waffles at medium heat and serve with herb quark and a salad, for example, for dinner. Tip: Instead of bacon, you can use a different, leaner bacon, or leftover smoked meat, salami, or cooked or raw ham. These should not be browned, of course. You can also replace the Parmesan cheese in whole or in part with other cheeses, although it is best not to use mild varieties. If you like, you can increase the amounts of bacon and cheese, use only bacon, or omit the bacon for a vegetarian version.
