Gaufre fourrée lilloise

The Lille filled waffle is flat, thin and soft, with a sweet filling. Vergeoise, a soft brown sugar, is used in local versions; fillings are also flavoured with vanilla, speculoos or coffee.[1]

Méert makes a brioche-style waffle filled with Madagascar vanilla paste. Its ingredients include wheat flour, butter, sugar, egg and yeast. Filled waffles are sold in the old town’s pastry shops and at Lille’s markets.[2][1]
