Fast Breakfasts for Anyone Who's Sick of Cereal

Frozen waffles are one of the most convenient breakfast foods we know, but they're also incredibly versatile. Once you start thinking of them as slices of bread with the most perfect nooks and crannies ever, you'll realize the possibilities are endless. Toast one and spread almond or hazelnut butter on one side, then close the sandwich with another toasted waffle; add in bananas or apple slices for some sweetness. Or try this Swedish combo from the new book Fika: The Art of the Swedish Coffee Break: a thin layer of butter, plus a medium-hard cheese like Swiss or Jarlsberg, and marmalade.
