Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat and lightly spray with cooking spray.

- Repeat layering process for each serving, creating a towering stack of waffles, bacon, cheese, and eggs.
- Serve immediately while ingredients are hot and cheese is melted. Optional: Drizzle with maple syrup or hot sauce for extra flavor.
Tips
- • For extra crispy waffles, let them cool slightly on a wire rack before assembling to prevent sogginess • Use thick-cut bacon for maximum flavor and crunch • Experiment with different cheese varieties like pepper jack or gouda for unique flavor profiles • Preheat your plates to keep the stacks warm during serving • If you're meal prepping, cook bacon and waffles in advance and reheat quickly before assembly • Use a non-stick skillet and medium heat when frying eggs to prevent overcooking • For a healthier version, consider turkey bacon or egg whites • Always serve immediately to enjoy the optimal texture and temperature of your waffle stacks
