Recently I discovered a מנהג to eat waffles on חנוכה. The origin of this מנהג is that 'ה made נס ופלא during these days. To this end, a מנהג developed in Amsterdam to eat vaffeles (Belgian waffles).
This מנהג was later mentioned in a song written by Moshe Yehuda Piza (see also here) which describes all the food-related מנהגים that are practiced throughout the year.

Postscript: perhaps one can eat the waffles with dairy syrup or the like, thereby fulfilling both מנהגים at once.
