Basic Homemade Waffles
This is my super easy go to plain recipe for waffles. I make these often at the lake and have now gotten into the habit of making extra, cooling them and then freezing them. They quickly reheat in the toaster directly from the freezer for an instant eggs and waffles breakfast after a morning of sculling and or water skiing.
Homemade Waffle Recipe
Special Note: This recipe can be easily jazzed up by adding anything you want to try…bananas, yes…blueberries, you betcha’…chocolate chips, why not…maybe cheese, okay…the sky’s the limit with this recipe base.
Ingredients:
1 c all-purpose flour
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp table salt
1 1/8 c milk
1 egg
Instructions:
Preheat waffle iron.
Place all dry ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine.
Combine wet ingredients.
Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, whisk to combine.
Let batter sit for 5 minutes before using.
Once waffle iron is fully heated and ready to use, brush with a little oil. Add about 1/2 c of waffle batter (amount of batter per waffle depends on the size of the waffle iron).
Close lid until cooked. (my waffle iron beeps and its light turns from red to green)
Enjoy immediately or place directly on racks in a warmed oven or cool thoroughly on cookie racks and then stack in a zip lock bah and freeze for later use.
Makes about 4 waffles (depending on the size of the waffles).
