Source: Heather Hayden
Ingredients:
| Standard Recipe (~6 Waffles) | Half Recipe (~3 Waffles) | Double Recipe (~12 Waffles) |
|
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-3/4 cups milk
2 eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
|
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp sugar
1/8 tsp salt
3/4 cup + 2 tbsp milk
1 egg
1 tbsp vegetable oil
|
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 1/2 cups milk

|
Instructions:
Preheat the waffle maker; Before it is hot, grease with cooking spray or oil if necessary.
In a large bowl: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a smaller bowl or measuring cup: Whisk milk, eggs, and oil.
Whisk milk mixture into dry ingredients just until dry ingredients are thoroughly moistened.
Pour ~1 cup batter onto the center of the bottom grid. Close top and flip waffle maker. Bake until brown, about 4 minutes. (Or follow your waffle maker’s instructions; they may vary.)
For best results, serve waffles Immediately. They will lose their crisp within 5-8 minutes.
Waffles can be served with any or all of the following:
-
Maple Syrup (best when heated slightly on the stovetop)
-
Butter (best when softened)
-
Whipped Cream (best when house-made just prior)
-
Ice Cream (suggested plain vanilla or chocolate, or a special pairing for special waffles)
-
Fresh Berries (raspberries, blackberries, sliced strawberries, or blueberries)
Recipe Modifications:
Buttermilk: Substitute 1:1 buttermilk for milk
Lemon poppyseed: add lemon extract to taste and 1 tsp of poppyseeds
Orange cranberry: add orange extract to taste and dried cranberries
Banana chocolate chip: add one mashed banana and chocolate chips (You can decrease or omit oil; make sure you spray your waffle iron with cooking spray though; even in a non-stick iron, bananas tend to make waffles stick!)
Cinnamon pecan: add cinnamon to taste and chopped pecans
Blueberry: add blueberries (Not advised: blueberry waffles will always stick to the pan)
