Wild for Waffles
Posted by Danielle Bean in Food on Tuesday, May 11, 2010 10:01 AM
So I got a brand new super awesome waffle maker for Mother’s Day.
It’s the third one I’ve owned, but I am thrilled to have it. Pancakes and french toast are nice, but I find myself wanting to make waffles again and again. Since my last waffle maker broke over a year ago, I am little out of practice with my creative waffle baking. Thus far, I have been happy to use the very basic, easy recipe that was printed in the owner’s manual:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Add milk, eggs and oil; mix well. Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown.
But I do remember using recipes that called for separating the eggs (and folding in egg whites) that produced very light and fluffy waffles. Like this one, for example.
And my perusing of my favorite recipe spot, AllRecipes.com, has turned up some tempting variations:
and Apple Waffles
Now it’s your turn, and I hope my fellow waffle moms out there will be willing to inspire me ...
