Yield Makes 12 (4-inch) Belgian waffles or 24 (4-inch) standard waffles

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/4 cups well-shaken buttermilk
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
Vegetable oil for brushing waffle iron, if necessary
Accompaniment: butter and pure maple syrup
Special Equipment
A well-seasoned or nonstick Belgian or standard waffle iron

Steps:

Preheat waffle iron. Put a rack in middle of oven and preheat oven to 200°F.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Add buttermilk, butter, and eggs and stir until smooth (batter will be thick).
Brush waffle iron lightly with vegetable oil, if necessary, and spoon batter into waffle iron, using 1/2 cup batter for each 4-inch-square Belgian waffle or 1/4 cup batter for each 4-inch-square standard waffle and spreading batter evenly. Cook according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer waffle to a baking sheet and keep warm, uncovered, in oven. Make more waffles with remaining batter in same manner.
Serve with butter and maple syrup.

WAFFLES

It's time to put that waffle iron languishing in the back of your cabinet to good use. These airy, delicate and crisp-edged waffles are so fabulous, yet so simple to throw together, they're destined to become part of your weekend breakfast routine. Freeze leftovers, if you have any, in Ziplock bags and serve them during the week. You can pop them in the toaster to reheat (use a light setting) and they come out nearly as well as freshly made, maybe even slightly crunchier. For a lighter, fluffier waffle, separate the eggs and proceed with step 2 using the egg yolks. Beat the whites until stiff, then fold into the batter. For whole-grain waffles, use 1 1/3 cup all-purpose flour and 2/3 cup whole-wheat flour. You can also substitute brown sugar for the granulated.
