Yield Makes 4 Belgian or 8 standard waffles, serving 2 generously

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 bacon slices
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup well-shaken buttermilk

For blackberry syrup

Into a large bowl sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and stir in buttermilk, egg, and bacon including bacon fat (about 1/4 cup) until smooth (batter will be very thick).
  • Make syrup:

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the taste of your waffles.
  • Make sure your buttermilk is fresh. If it's not, your waffles will be sour.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make your waffles tough.
  • Let the batter rest for at least 10 minutes before cooking. This will help the gluten in the flour to relax, which will make your waffles more tender.
  • Cook the waffles on a hot griddle. This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
  • Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings.

Conclusion:

Bacon buttermilk waffles are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch recipe. They're perfect for a special occasion or a lazy weekend morning. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a stack of fluffy, golden waffles that are sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new waffle recipe to try, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed.
