Categories     Breakfast     Molasses

Yield 8 Waffles

Number Of Ingredients 20

Waffle Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon allspice
1 3/4 cups buttermilk* or 1 1/2 cups sour cream or plain yogurt thinned with 1/4 cup milk
2 eggs, separated
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup raisins
1 cup walnuts, chopped
1 1/2 cup finely grated carrots
Cooking spray for waffle iron
Maple Nut Cream Cheese Spread Ingredients:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
3-4 tablespoons maple syrup
1/8 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Directions: 1. Bloom the spices in butter**: Heat 4 tablespoons butter in skillet over medium heat until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Continue to cook, swirling pan constantly, until butter is light brown and has faint nutty aroma, 2 to 4 minutes. Add spices and continue to cook, stirring constantly, 15 seconds. Remove from heat and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. 2. Combine the flour, salt, sugar, baking soda. 3. Mix together the buttermilk (or buttermilk substitute) and the egg yolks. Stir in the spiced butter and vanilla. Spray the waffle iron well and preheat it. Stir the wet into the dry ingredients. 4. Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl with a whisk or electric mixer (make sure bowl and mixer are spotlessly clean) until they hold soft peaks. Stir them gently into the batter. Add carrots, walnuts, and raisins. Stir gently to combine. 5. Spread a ladleful or so of batter onto the waffle iron and bake until the waffle is done, usually 3 to 5 minutes, depending on your iron. Spray iron with cooking spray between waffles as needed. 6. To make Maple Cream Cheese spread, simply combine nuts, syrup, and cream cheese and mix well. Serve waffles immediately with a schmear of Maple Cream Cheese spread (which will get lovely and melty), or keep them warm for a few minutes in a low oven.*** Notes: * The buttermilk can be substituted with 1 1/4 cups of milk at room temperature, mixed with two tablespoons white vinegar, left to clabber for 10 minutes. **If you prefer a quicker breakfast, you can melt and cool the butter plain instead of browning it and blooming the spices in it - but doing so does add flavor. If you do skip the spice blooming, simply add the spices to the dry ingredients in step 2. Add your plain melted, cooled butter instead of the spiced butter in step 3.

Tips:

  • Use real maple syrup. This is essential for achieving the best flavor in your maple snow. Look for 100% pure maple syrup, not pancake syrup or flavored syrups.
  • Don't overcook the mixture. The mixture should be cooked until it reaches a soft ball stage, which is 235-240 degrees Fahrenheit. If you overcook it, the candy will be too hard and brittle.
  • Be careful when handling the hot mixture. It can cause severe burns, so use caution when stirring and pouring it.
  • Store the maple snow in an airtight container. It will keep well for up to 2 weeks at room temperature or up to 6 months in the freezer.

Conclusion:

Maple snow is a delicious and easy-to-make candy that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover maple syrup, and it's also a fun project to do with kids. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet treat that will be enjoyed by everyone.
