Belgian Waffle Strawberry Sundaes Recipes

BELGIAN WAFFLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees and preheat a Belgian waffle iron (or standard waffle iron).
• In a mixing bowl whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt for 20 seconds, make a well in center of mixture and set aside.
• In a separate mixing bowl whisk together buttermilk, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract and egg yolks until combined.
• In a separate bowl, using an electric hand mixer set on high speed, whip egg whites** until soft peaks form. Add sugar and whip until medium-stiff glossy peaks form.
• While whisking, pour buttermilk mixture into well in flour mixture and mix just until combined (batter should be slightly lumpy). Fold in egg white mixture.
• Cook batter in waffle iron according to manufactures directions. Once each waffle is done, transfer to warm oven and allow to rest to crisp further and keep warm. Serve warm with butter and maple syrup or other desired toppings.

BELGIAN WAFFLES

Steps:

• Whisk the buttermilk, melted butter and vanilla together in a large bowl. Separate the egg and whisk the yolk into the buttermilk mixture. Whisk the egg white in a clean bowl until it forms stiff peaks - this will keep your waffles light and fluffy.
• Weigh all the other dry ingredients into a bowl. Whisk in the wet ingredients to create a smooth batter then carefully but decisively fold through the egg white - don't worry if you are left with a few small lumps. Cover with cling film and leave the batter to sit for 30 mins, if you have time.
• Lightly oil then heat your waffle maker (or see the tip below). Heat the oven to low, so you can keep each waffle warm while the next one cooks. Pour enough batter for one waffle (about a quarter) into the waffle maker, close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown on both sides and will come away from the maker easily, about 2 mins. Repeat with the remaining batter, then top with whatever you fancy.
