This is not a recipe to be taken lightly. It is the best recipe I have ever put on this blog. (Unfortunately not the best pictures though–this is my point and shoot camera 😦 ) I feel like I never need to cook again. The waffles, they were light and fluffy, crispy on the outside, and approximately 4 million times better than the boxed mix. I feel the need to finish the post and go back into the kitchen to make them again!
What you need:
-Waffle Maker
-Hand Mixer
-2 cups all-purpose flour
-2 eggs
-2 Tblsp flour
-1.5 tsp vanilla
-1 teaspoon cinnamon
-4 tsp baking powder (or replacement, below)
-1.75 cups milk
-1/2 cup smart balance oil
Don’t have baking powder? (I didnt). Easy fix. For each teaspoon of baking powder required, use 1/4 tsp baking soda and 1/2 teaspon cream of tartar. For the above recipe I used 1 teaspon baking soda and 2 teaspoons cream of tartar.
Use the mixer and beat until smooth. Cook like any other waffle on your lil griddle and check this out:
Results in a messy kitchen, but so worth it!
Don’t put too much mix in…because this happens and its unfortunate:
Wish the pictures could do this recipe justice!!
Now, back to my Saturday ritual of watching Thats So Raven and correcting papers before my run! Think I might actually do it outside today!
I heart waffles. I”ll definitely have to try this with our waffle maker when I get back!
Do it! I might try to make a healthier version with egg whites (whipping them first then folding them in) and applesauce replacing the oil…
these were unbelievable as is though!!
Beautiful waffles! They look so crispy and delicious. I really like making these. In fact, I recently made sourdough waffles for the first time (good stuff!).
I absolutely love the idea of adding cinnamon to the batter. I will bet that adds a lot of flavor. I must try this!
We just got our waffle maker over the holidays, and I cannot believe I have gone this long without one! Nothing beats fresh waffles–I can’t believe I ever even ate the frozen ones!!
