Hey, put down that loaf of bread for a second. I’ve got 13 waffle sandwiches right here that are ridiculously good, and honestly, they deserve way more celebration than they get.
They’re sweet and savory with a salty kick, and totally scrumptious any time of day. Let’s give waffles their moment, shall we?
1. Mini BLT Waffle Sliders
If you’re hunting for a fun little bite to serve at brunch, these waffle sliders are exactly it. They’re small, but the flavor is huge. Because these waffles are a bit smaller than usual, they get extra crispy and even more delicious.

You just can't beat the classic pairing of ham and cheese tucked between two thick, crispy waffles. I’m talking smoky savory perfection with a salty edge and the most irresistible ooey gooey center. These waffle sandwiches are a total win all on their own, but if you’re in the mood to play, a drizzle of maple syrup takes things to a whole new level.
3. Waffle Monte Cristo Sandwich
A classic Monte Cristo is already a beauty with salty ham, gooey cheese, and sweet jam, all battered and fried into a leveled up version of my favorite French sandwich, the Croque Monsieur. Finished with a dusting of powdered sugar, it has this lovely layer of sweetness that I think you’ll really fall for.
4. Plant-Based Potato Waffle Sandwiches with Herbed Tofu Cream
Just because you’re eating plant-based doesn’t mean you miss out on an amazing waffle sandwich. This inventive recipe uses potatoes, whole wheat bread crumbs, soy milk, rice flour, and flaxseed to create surprisingly delicious waffles. Then comes a creamy, earthy, herb filled spread made with tofu, scallions, garlic, and lemon juice, and it’s all just so fresh and satisfying.
5. Goat Cheese and Strawberry Jam Waffle Sandwiches
You can turn frozen waffles into a fancy little breakfast with just two simple ingredients. The combo of strawberry jam and creamy goat cheese creates a sweet and salty luscious flavor that makes a humble waffle an extra special sandwich.
If strawberries aren’t your jam, don’t sweat it. This works beautifully with almost any variety.
6. Cornmeal Waffle Sandwiches with Bacon and Cheddar
These waffle sandwiches hit every note: salty, sweet, creamy, mouthwatering. Beyond the scrumptious bacon, cheese, and maple mustard filling, the real star is the cornmeal in the waffle batter. It brings that corny flavor and gritty texture you love in cornbread, making every bite feel extra special.
7. Chocolate Chip Waffle PB&J Sandwiches
This is PB&J taken to a whole new realm of breakfast, and I am so here for it. Along with peanut butter and your favorite jelly, you tuck banana slices inside two crisp waffles studded with chocolate chips.
Wow, right? It’s the most delicious upgrade to a classic.
8. Easy Turkey and Egg Waffle Sandwich
Scrambled eggs, turkey slices, and cheddar cheese fill these waffle sandwiches, and while the flavors aren’t new, you know they’ll hit the spot. What I absolutely love is how it reminds us that we don’t need hours in the kitchen to make a hearty, yummy meal. Simple and so satisfying.
9. Grilled Cheese Waffle Sandwiches with Bacon
These grilled cheese waffle sammies pack crisp, smoky bacon right inside the waffles, and the batter even gets a boost from bacon fat. Because does anything taste better with bacon? There’s zero doubt in my mind this dish is a certified hit, especially when ooey gooey cheddar cheese starts oozing out.
10. Epic Waffle Bun Cheeseburger
Why make a boring cheeseburger when you can make this epic waffle cheeseburger? Waffles are so in, and using them as the bun gives the burger a texture that’s even better than the original. Once you try it, you won’t look back.

Waffles, fried chicken, bacon, and cheddar cheese come together for a breakfast you’ll crave again and again. If you can’t decide on just one filling, who says you can’t have them all? Any morning that starts with fried chicken, bacon, and cheese is automatically a great one in my book.
12. Tuna Melt Waffle Sandwich
These waffle sandwiches are filled with a sensational mix of canned tuna, mayo, shredded carrots, and cilantro. That’s tuna salad for champions, y’all. Provolone cheese adds an extra layer of creaminess, but it’s totally optional, of course.
13. Loaded Breakfast Waffle Sandwiches
When you make these incredible breakfast sandwiches, I can’t say it loudly enough: make a double batch. They’re piled high with sweet and smoky BBQ beans, buttered mushrooms, a fried egg, and fresh arugula.
Each element brings its own magic, from that rich, runny yolk to the earthy mushrooms. You’ll want to eat them for days, and honestly, I support that.
