GRANDMA'S WAFFLES

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder, salt.
• In a separate bowl beat egg YOLKS and then add milk and butter.
• Combine dry mixture with egg+milk+butter mixture. Beat until smooth.
• Beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry.Slowly add sugar, beating constantly.
• Mix 1/3 of beaten whites with batter then fold remaining whites in carefully.
• Pour around 3/4 cup of batter in waffle iron.

THE BEST BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Whisk in the butter until incorporated, being careful not to overmix the batter.
• Spray both sides of the preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending on its size. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close the iron and cook until the waffles are a deep golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. (If the waffle iron has a well-seasoned or nonstick surface, it may not be necessary to spray it between each batch.)
• Serve the waffles immediately with butter, syrup, jam, berries or yogurt.

CLASSIC BELGIAN WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. In 1 medium bowl sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a second bowl use the wooden spoon to beat together the egg yolks and sugar until sugar is completely dissolved and eggs have turned a pale yellow. Add the vanilla extract, melted butter, and milk to the eggs and whisk to combine. Combine the egg-milk mixture with the flour mixture and whisk just until blended. Do not over mix. In third bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, about 1 minute. Using the rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the waffle batter. Do not overmix! Coat the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray and pour enough batter in iron to just cover waffle grid. Close and cook as per manufacturer's instructions until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

GRAND MARNIER SOUFFLé

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Rub the butter on the bottom and sides of four 1-cup souffle dishes. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar over the insides of the souffle dishes.
• Place the egg yolks in a bowl and add 1/2 cup sugar, the orange rind and the Grand Marnier. Beat briskly until well blended.
• In a large, deep bowl, preferably copper, beat the egg whites until stiff. Toward the end, beat in the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. (You can use an electric stand mixer, but keep an eye on the egg whites. They should not be too stiff.)
• Spoon the egg-yolk mixture into the whites, folding in rapidly. Place equal portions of the mixture in the prepared souffle dishes.
• Put the dishes on a baking sheet, and place on the bottom of the oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, and serve immediately.

GRANDMA'S SOURDOUGH WAFFLES

Steps:

• The night before you want your waffles, mix the flour, yeast, and lukewarm water.
• Put in tall bowl, as it will rise quite a bit.
• Cover with towel and let sit in room temperature overnight.
• In the morning, uncover and stir.
• Don't be put off by the texture. It is supposed to look weird. Really.
• Add the eggs and oil/milk, enough to make it thin enough to use.
• It might be a little tough to make it all mix together, because it tends to be a bit sticky, but keep at it.
• Usually helps if you've mixed the eggs a little in a separate bowl, so you're not dealing with a whole yolk.
• In small, separate bowl combine baking soda and sugar. Mix until no lumps.
• Add to soda & sugar mixture to bowl with waffle dough.
• Stir until mixed in.
• Let sit about fifteen minutes. (A good time to start preheating your waffle iron.)
• Spray waffle iron with cooking spray. You'll need to repeat this occasionally as the spray wears off.
• Experiment with amounts of waffle dough to put in the iron and times. For us, we use a ladle and cook each waffle for 3-5 minutes. Those sizes and times work perfectly for us, but I'm sure waffle irons vary in size and cooking times.
• You can get creative with adding other ingredients. I haven't tried any of these yet, but I've heard adding crumbled bacon, blueberries, grated apples, etc. to the mix before making the waffles works well.
• For us, the recipe usually yields 8-9 waffles, enough for 3-4 people. It might differ for your waffle iron.

WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat the waffle maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks. In a separate large bowl, mix together the flour, bicarbonate, caster sugar and a pinch of salt.
• Make a well in the centre and add the egg yolks and melted butter. Start mixing with a balloon whisk; keep whisking as you slowly add the milk until you get a smooth, thick batter. Carefully fold in the egg whites with a metal spoon.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Use a ladle to pour the batter into your waffle maker and cook for 5 mins or according to the manufacturer's instructions. Repeat until all the batter has been used up, placing your finished waffles onto a baking tray as you go.
• Once all the waffles are made, transfer to the oven for 5 mins to warm through and crisp. Serve with sweet or savoury toppings.
