Buttermilk-Brown Sugar Waffles image

This recipe first appeared in The Times in a 2006 article Julia Moskin wrote about wedding registries and what items couples should (and shouldn't) include on theirs. A cookware set? No. Better to buy pieces individually according to a couple's needs. A waffle iron? Why yes, if there's any chance of children. These waffles are light, crisp and easy to throw together, like traditional waffles, but the buttermilk lends tang and the brown sugar an earthy sweetness. The secret ingredient here is wheat germ. It provides a lovely toothsome texture and crunch.

Time 10m

Yield About 8 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 eggs
1 3/4 cups buttermilk
1 stick butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour or 1 1/2 cups flour and 1/4 cup wheat germ
2 tablespoons light brown sugar or 1 tablespoon each white and dark brown sugars
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Nonstick cooking spray or butter

Steps:

  • Whisk eggs, buttermilk and melted butter in a large bowl. In another bowl stir dry ingredients together, then add to egg mixture and whisk just until smooth. Let batter rest briefly.
  • Heat a waffle iron and butter lightly or spray with nonstick cooking spray (even nonstick waffle irons require this step). Ladle batter onto iron (about 1/4 cup for an 8-inch round iron), close, and cook just until light golden brown. Serve immediately.

These waffles were easy to make and turned out perfect. I used a Belgian waffle maker and they cooked evenly. The flavor was amazing and I loved the crispy edges.

These waffles were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more buttermilk next time.

These waffles were amazing! I loved the combination of buttermilk and brown sugar. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I will definitely be making these again.

I had some trouble getting the waffles to cook evenly. Some parts were overcooked while others were still raw. I think I need to adjust the heat on my waffle maker.

These waffles were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would reduce the amount of brown sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of waffles, but these were a game-changer. The buttermilk and brown sugar made them so flavorful and moist. I'll definitely be making these again soon.
