directions

  • 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.

  1. Thank you. I made this once as is, and the next time I added 1 Tablespoon brown sugar and 1/2t. to 3/4 t. of vanilla. It just added a bit of sweetness. My husband loves it, plus it is EASY to throw together on a saturday morning. Even the night before you can mix all the dry ingredients and place a cover over the bowl, so you only have to add the wet ingredients in the morning for an even FASTER, recipe!
     
  2. I have made this recipe a number of times...the best, so easy, it is fool-proof, when I have extra left over, I refrigerate and within a couple of days, My husband pops them in the toaster when I am not available to make from scratch for breakfast.
     
  3. I have used this general purpose recipe for several years, which lets me add ingredients or substitute ingredients (like buckwheat flour for regular flour, almond milk instead of dairy milk) with great success. Another nice thing about this batter recipe is that it doesn't stick to my 1930's vintage waffle iron like some other recipes do.
     
  4. This recipe did not dissapoint. Very nice texture, good flavor. In the middle of making them, I found I was out of baking powder. Used only the baking soda and they turned out fine. I'm saving this one for sure.
     
  5. Very yummy. It made six waffles, so any more than 2 people and you might want to double the recipe. My roommate and i ate the whole batch!

I live in the San Francisco area and love it here. I discovered Recipezaar (then Food.com..Genius Kitchen) in 2001 and have been so happy to have my favorite recipes stored safely here. I am mother to 7 and grandmother to 7. I love to knit, smock, sew, etc., but my favorite hobby of the moment is traditional rug hooking. This is a sample of what I do.? It's called "November".? I dyed most of the wool myself. It is made from wool flannel, cut into strips a little less than 1/4" and then worked into a linen backing. This is my 3rd rug.
