National Waffle Day is August 24 and species from across the galaxy are advised to celebrate the revered holiday like the Sith Lords do, with Darth Maul-ffles.
The true enemy of the dark side is gluten -- these chewy waffles are not only gluten-free, but look eerily similar to the great Zabrak from Dathomir. Made with a mix of rice flour, these treats are chewy and the Sith markings are much more pleasant -- as they’re recreated with a sweet, dark icing.
Enjoy these tasty Maul-ffles on National Waffle Day, just be careful when you cut them in half. Too soon?
