Authentic Liège Waffles with Pearl Sugar (Gaufres de Liège)

If you've only had “Belgian waffles” at a brunch spot or from a box mix, you're in for a sweet surprise. These Liège waffles are the real deal—rich, chewy, and studded with caramelized pockets of Belgian pearl sugar. Unlike the light and fluffy Brussels-style waffles, Liège waffles are made from a buttery brioche-style dough that’s folded with crunchy sugar pearls that melt and crisp up in the waffle iron. The result? A golden, slightly sticky waffle with addictive texture and bold flavor.

Sugar Shack Traditional Omelet

Nothing says Sugaring-Off Season quite like a hearty, golden omelet straight from the sugar shack! This traditional Sugar Shack Omelet is a staple in Québec’s maple syrup season, served alongside thick-cut bacon, baked beans, and of course, a generous drizzle of pure maple syrup. Known for its rich, custard-like texture with crisp edges, this omelet starts on the stove-top and then oven-baked for an authentic omelet that is simple yet deeply satisfying.

Whether you're enjoying a sugar shack meal at home or hosting a brunch, this easy, 7-ingredient recipe delivers a rustic, comforting dish that pairs perfectly with your favorite Québécois classics.
