These were great! You can freeze wild rice once it's cooked. I always make extra when I make a recipe that calls for it so it cuts down on prep time later. Thanks for the recipe! I'll be making these again. I'll probably double the recipe next time since it didn't make a lot.

It is truly a shame that more people have not tried this recipe. I'm a Minnesotan and we put wild rice into everything, so if you're thinking wild rice in waffles sounds weird, it's delicious. Wild rice doesn't bring a ton of taste, it's all about texture. I make a full breakfast for my husband and I at least once a weekend. It's my favorite meal to make and I love to experiment. I can honestly say these are the best waffles I've ever tasted. The only changes I made were I toasted the pecans to bring out the flavor and I added a 1/2 cup of crasins. They were so tasty. Perfect with real maple syrup. A nice sweet/savory/tangy treat. This is the first time the two of us have ever used up all the waffle batter. The one recommendation I have is the recipe calls for 1 1/2 cups COOKED wild rice. I misread it at first and cooked 1 1/2 cups of wild rice which made about 6 cups of cooked rice. So I would say if you start with about 3/4 of a cup of uncooked rice it will make 1 1/2 cups once it's cooked. Thanks so much for this recipe. It will be used many more times in our house. Just writing this review makes me want them again!

Perfect for a fall breakfast!
