Buckwheat Waffles With Strawberry Compote Food

BUCKWHEAT WAFFLES

Steps:

• IF USING BUCKWHEAT GROATS: Place the buckwheat groats in the jar of a high-speed blender. Blend into a very fine flour. This might take a few minutes and require stopping the blender and shaking the container to get everything completely smooth.
• Pour the buckwheat flour into a bowl and add the coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Mix to evenly combine.
• In a glass measuring cup, add the almond milk (be sure it isn't cold so the coconut oil doesn't solidify), cider vinegar, vanilla extract and egg. Mix to combine. Pour the almond milk mixture into the dry ingredients along with the coconut oil. Stir to evenly combine.
• Preheat a waffle iron and light grease with cooking spray. Cook waffles according to the manufacturers instructions. (I usually cook my waffles for 3-4 minutes in this waffle iron).
• Serve immediately with toppings of choice. Leftover waffles freeze great! Just let them cool and put in a ziploc bag. Frozen waffles can be toasted directly from the freezer.

BUCKWHEAT WAFFLES WITH STRAWBERRY COMPOTE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
• Combine buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a measuring cup and whisk until completely mixed.
• Add buttermilk mixture slowly into flour mixture and stir to combine. You can leave some small lumps. Be careful not to overmix the batter as it will become tough.
• Heat waffle iron to highest setting and then grease with butter or cooking spray. Preheat oven to 250 F to keep cooked waffles warm.
• Add the right amount of batter for your waffle iron (each one is different) and cook until golden brown. Keep cooked waffles warm in oven as you prepare rest of the batch.
• Combine strawberries, cherries, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan while waffles are cooking. Cook on medium heat, stirring occasionally until it has thickened, about 10 minutes. Keep it hot on low heat if it's done before waffles are finished. (You can store leftover compote in refrigerator for a week and serve it on other breakfast foods.)
• Whisk together Greek yogurt and powdered sugar in a small bowl. If you want to do a neat looking drizzle, place glaze in a squeeze bottle.
• Drizzle glaze over cooked waffles and then top with strawberry compote. To be super indulgent, add a dusting of confectioners' sugar.

SWEDISH WAFFLES WITH BERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Berry compote: In a small saucepan, combine berries, sugar, and lemon juice. Gently heat until sugar is dissolved. Crush about half of the berries with a wooden spoon; allow the rest to soften but maintain their shape, 10 minutes. Set aside.
• Waffles: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in the ingredients and pour in the milk and vanilla; whisk thoroughly. Then whisk in warm (not hot) melted butter until fully incorporated. The batter should be thin.
• Heat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions. Brush waffle iron on both sides with some of the remaining melted butter. Ladle enough batter to evenly cover the lower plate. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Repeat in batches with remaining batter; make 6-7 waffles.
• Assembly: Place waffles on a serving platter, spoon berries on top, and serve.

BUCKWHEAT WAFFLES WITH MACERATED STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose and rye flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
• In a second bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, canola oil, and vanilla extract. Add to the dry ingredients, and whisk into a smooth batter. Set aside to rest for 15 minutes. Let the batter stand, uncovered, 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a second mixing bowl, toss the strawberries with brandy and sugar. Cover and set aside to let the berries macerate.
• Preheat your waffle iron as per the manufacturer's directions. Spoon in batter (the amount will vary, depending on your waffle maker's capacity), and use a spatula to spread the batter into an even layer.
• Cook for about 5-8 minutes per batch, or until the waffles are crisp and golden-brown. Repeat until all of the batter is done.
• To serve, arrange waffles on plates, and spoon the macerated berries overtop. Dig in and enjoy, or finish with a drizzle of maple syrup for extra sweetness.
