crispy waffles
Waffles! They totally deserve the exclamation point. Pancakes have their place, but waffles? Waffles have built-in maple syrup and whipped cream/butter receptacles! No contest.
It’s 5:30 on a Saturday morning, and I’m waffling. Go to bed, or make waffles?
Ahahahaha! Ha ha! Ha. Ahhhh.

I think I’ll go to bed. (Mostly because, if I go downstairs, I’ll have to address the path of destruction that The Beagle left behind. Zack, your rice crackers are no more!)
This post goes out to everyone who’s about to wake up and start their weekend off right…with a hot, crispy, preferably maple-syruped-and-whipped-creamed-and-or-buttered-all-to-hell waffle.(!) With coffee.
The fact that I spend most of my work "day" working on my own means that sometimes I have way too much time to think. About things like, could a highly trained monkey actually do my job? How long would it take to train this hy ...
Did you know that you can have fresh, crispy french fries at home without frying? Yeah, you probably did. It took me 27 years to figure that one out. There are a couple of recipes out there that are worth firing up the ...
I made this cake for my mom's (belated) birthday, which seems fitting since she taught me how to make it, and her mom taught her. Is there a better way to say that? Probably. Thanks, mom, for being born! Had I gotten an ...
Waffles (via orangette)
makes about 3 large belgian waffles
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 cup whole milk
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, soda, salt, and sugar. Add milk, buttermilk, oil, egg, and vanilla, whisking well until only a few (if any) lumps remain. Cover and let rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high (5 on a machine with a dial from 1-7.) You don’t need to grease the waffle iron, the oil in the batter will be sufficient.
Cook waffles until crisp and golden.
Your “buttered-to-all-hell” waffles look like a great way to kick off the weekend. Haha- Yum!
I’ll skip the coffee (not allowed) but make that an extra waffle for me, please!
I love waffles. And fall weather is perfect waffle making time. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to trying!
These looks great! I’m constantly getting limp waffles and I’d about given up, so I’ll definitely have to give these a try!
they’re definitely nice and crispy…i think the cornstarch helps out
[…] was I correct when I said that waffles beat pancakes, due to their built-in syrup and whipped cream receptacles? I debated this one for a while. The […]
