Golden Harvest Waffles Recipes

GOLDEN BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs; add buttermilk and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until combined., Bake in a preheated waffle iron according to manufacturer's directions until golden brown. If desired, serve with sliced fresh strawberries, syrup and whipped cream.

WAFFLE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat waffle iron. Preheat oven to 225°F or set on warm setting (only if you want to keep waffles warm and crispy while cooking remaining waffles.) Place a rack on a large baking sheet and place inside the oven.
• In a large bowl, whisk together all purpose flour, sugar, salt baking powder and baking soda (if using). Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine room temperature milk, eggs, vanilla extract and melted (and cooled) butter. Whisk to combine.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. A few small lumps are fine. Let the waffle batter sit for 10 minutes.
• Grease waffle iron if needed with butter, oil or cooking spray (refer to product instructions if necessary) and scoop or ladle the batter onto the preheated waffle iron until batter is within ½ an inch from the edge. (I use about ¾ cup of batter for my iron.)
• Cook until golden brown and waffle iron indicates the waffle is ready. If your waffle iron doesn't have a light that goes off, keep an eye on the steam coming from the iron. When it is almost gone, check your waffle as that is in indication it is done cooking.
• Remove waffle from iron and serve with butter, maple syrup, berries and/or whipped cream. You can also keep warm by placing cooked waffles in the preheated oven on the rack while the rest of the waffles are cooked.

GOLDEN WAFFLES WITH TROPICAL FRUITS

Steps:

• Date butter: Pulse butter and dates in a food processor, scraping down sides a few times, until smooth and combined. Date butter can be made up to a week ahead and stored in refrigerator; bring to room temperature before using.
• Waffles: Whisk together flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, sour cream, butter, eggs, and vanilla. Whisk milk mixture into flour mixture just to combine (do not overmix).
• Preheat a waffle iron. Coat with a thin layer of cooking spray. Pour 1 1/4 cups batter per waffle into center of iron, allowing it to spread almost to edges. Close lid and cook until golden brown and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from iron and quickly toss between your hands several times to release steam and help retain crispness, then transfer to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet; keep warm in a 225 degrees oven until ready to serve. Repeat coating iron with more cooking spray between batches.
• Serve, with date butter, fruit, pistachios, and syrup.
