Miss Pixies Basic Waffle Batter Food

BASIC WAFFLES

Steps:

• Add dry ingredients to mixing bowl and stir to mix well.
• Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth.
• Let batter sit for 5 minutes before using.
• Use less than you think on your 1st waffle, spreading batter with a non-stick spatula. Batter spreads and rises, so you don't want to overfill your waffle iron.
• Cook until done--varies depending on temperature of your waffle iron.

SIMPLE WAFFLES FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron and read manufacturer's instructions. Melt butter in microwave. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. In another bowl, beat together milk and eggs. Whisk liquid mixture into dry ingredients until just combined. Stir in melted butter. Brush hot waffle iron with butter. Spoon about 1/2 cup of batter onto iron and close to cook. This first waffle will be the tester. Cook waffle until golden brown. Remove to plate and keep warm

BASIC BATTER WAFFLES

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients together using a large whisk.
• Mix the wet ingredients together.
• Gently combine but don't overmix.
• Cook as your waffle maker directs.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar (my daughter).
• Cover with toasted nuts, bananas, and real maple syrup (Me!).
• Pour on log Cabin (my son) and Michele's Maple Cream Syrup for my husband!

WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg yolks, vanilla, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Take care not to over mix the batter. In medium bowl, with a hand-held electric mixer or whisk, whip the 3 egg whites until they just begin to hold a loose peak. Scatter the sugar over the whites and continue beating until they hold a soft peak. Using a rubber spatula, fold a third of the egg whites into the batter to lighten the base. Fold in the remaining whites.
• Brush the inside surface of the iron with butter. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending upon the size of the iron. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Cover and cook until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. (If the waffle iron is well seasoned or nonstick it is not necessary to brush the inner surface each time before cooking the waffles.)
• Serve the waffles immediately with syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt.

EASY WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In a small bowl, whisk milk and eggs; pour over flour mixture, and whisk gently to combine (don't overmix). Gently whisk in butter.
• Following manufacturer's instructions, cook waffles until deep brown and crisp. (For a standard waffle iron, pour a generous 1/2 cup of batter into center, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges, and close; waffle will cook in 2 to 3 minutes.) Serve warm, with maple syrup and butter, as desired.
