These were pretty good. I've made a few different waffle recipes in the last few years and these stood out a bit. The oats added a little heartiness, and the hint of cinnamon is different too. I made this recipe exactly as written, and it yielded 7 waffles. I didn't, however, "top with fresh fruit and yogurt" - just the usual real maple syrup.

"Very simple and easy," indeed. I gathered from glancing at some prior reviews that this was a pudding in the English sense (dessert) and not the American one (custard). But I didn't quite know what to expect. It turned out to be a simple, yet tasty kind of cake with a pronounced, but not too strong, maple flavor. I made it exactly as written, and it turned out fine. But in my case, I think the 45 minute baking time was a little too long, as it was fairly well browned. This is nothing fancy, but I liked it well enough for three nights' desserts. Worth a try, but I'm not sure I'll be making it again.

This was better than I expected. I love chocolate pudding but had always thought vanilla pudding was fairly boring. I tried to make this exactly as written. Unfortunately, when bringing the mixture to a boil, I turned away for just a few seconds, and a bit of it boiled over. After finishing the recipe, I had a bowl of it, served warm as recommended, and it was very nice and smooth. However, leftovers the next two days had bits of what I guess were cooked eggs in them. I suppose I should blame that on my technique, i.e., not mixing things well enough. But this might be worth trying again and doing perfectly. I'd never made anything like this and it was pretty cool, and aside from the small solid bits I created, it was as creamy and tasty as promised.
