Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield About 8 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 1/2 cups milk
4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, plus more for brushing waffle iron
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening, melted
2 large eggs
Pure maple syrup, soft unsalted butter, confectioners' sugar or fruit preserves, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (to keep cooked waffles warm). Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, butter, shortening and eggs in another bowl. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until just incorporated (it's okay if there are some lumps).
  • Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with butter. Fill the waffle iron about three-quarters of the way full (some waffle iron should still be showing). Close the lid gently and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Keep the cooked waffles warm in the oven or covered with foil on a plate while you make the remaining waffles.
  • Serve with maple syrup, butter, sugar or fruit preserves.

LIGHT AND CRISPY WAFFLES



Light and Crispy Waffles image

These light and crispy waffles come together quickly. Cornstarch is the secret to crispy waffles. It guarantees that your waffles will be perfectly crisp and tender. This recipe makes four standard waffles (1/2-inch to 3/4-inch thick). If you want to make thicker Belgian waffles or use a deep waffle iron, you will get closer to three waffles using our recipe below. Separating the egg is optional but is recommended. We do not do this in the video; however, after years of feedback from readers, we have determined that whipping the egg white thickens the batter slightly and improves the results for deeper waffle irons.

Time 35m

Yield Makes 4 standard waffles or 2 to 3 thick waffles

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup (130 grams) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup (30 grams) cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon sugar
1 cup (235 ml) buttermilk or milk
1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
Butter, syrup and/or berries, for serving

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk the buttermilk, oil, and vanilla extract.
  • For the lightest waffles, separate the egg. Whisk the egg yolk into the milk mixture. If you do not plan on separating the egg, whisk the whole egg into the milk mixture.
  • If you separate the egg, add the egg white to another bowl, use a handheld mixer to beat until stiff, and then set aside.
  • Whisk the milk mixture into the dry ingredients until only small lumps are left. Switch to a rubber spatula and gently fold in the whipped egg whites.
  • Set the batter aside for five to ten minutes while preparing the waffle iron.
  • Heat the waffle iron to the highest heat setting.
  • Cook waffles until golden and crisp, adding enough batter to the waffle iron to fill the entire lower grid. If the waffles look too dark, turn the heat down slightly.
  • Serve the waffles immediately or keep them warm and crispy on a rack in a 200°F oven until ready to serve. Stacking them outside the oven will cause them to steam and become floppy.

Categories     Egg     Breakfast     Bake     Kid-Friendly

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1.5 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup corn flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 cups milk
6 Tbs. vegetable oil
6 Tbs. melted butter
3 large egg, separated
4 Tbs. icing sugar
1 tps. vanilla essence
1 Tbs. Orange zest

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 120°c and pre-heat the waffle iron. Mix the flour, corn flour, baking powder, salt, orange zest and baking soda in a medium bowl. Add the egg yolks and slowly mix in the milk, butter, vegetable oil and vanilla. Beat until the mixture is smooth and set aside (works best if mixture has been left to stand for 30mins) In another bowl, beat the egg white into peaks. Add in the icing sugar and continue to beat until the peaks are firm. Slowly fold the egg whites to the mixture (do not over mix or the mixture will flatten) Pour the mixture into the hot waffle iron. Cook until light brown and crisp. Steam should have stopped coming out from the cooking waffle. If you remove the waffles too soon they will collapse. Remove from the waffle iron and immediately transfer to a rack in the oven for 5 minutes to dry and crisp. Serve and enjoy!

EASY WAFFLES

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Maple syrup and butter, as desired, for serving

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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your waffles.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for 10-15 minutes will allow the gluten to relax, resulting in lighter, fluffier waffles.
  • Preheat your waffle iron: Make sure your waffle iron is hot before you start cooking. This will help the waffles cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the waffle iron: Don't try to cook too many waffles at once. This will make them cook unevenly.
  • Flip the waffles carefully: Use a spatula to carefully flip the waffles. Don't press down on them, or they may stick.
  • Serve the waffles immediately: Waffles are best served hot and fresh. Serve them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
