Joy Of Cooking Buttermilk Waffles Recipes

THE BEST BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Whisk in the butter until incorporated, being careful not to overmix the batter.
• Spray both sides of the preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending on its size. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close the iron and cook until the waffles are a deep golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. (If the waffle iron has a well-seasoned or nonstick surface, it may not be necessary to spray it between each batch.)
• Serve the waffles immediately with butter, syrup, jam, berries or yogurt.

BELGIAN BUTTERMILK WAFFLES WITH GLAZED BANANAS

Steps:

• Make waffles:
• Put oven rack in middle position and put a large metal cooling rack directly on it. Preheat oven to 250°F and preheat waffle iron.
• Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
• Whisk together buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs in another bowl, then whisk into flour mixture until just combined.
• Brush hot waffle iron lightly with vegetable oil and pour a slightly rounded 1/2 cup of batter into each waffle mold (see cooks' note, below). Cook waffles according to manufacturer's instructions until golden and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer as cooked to rack in oven to keep warm, keeping waffles in 1 layer to stay crisp. Make more waffles in same manner.
• Make topping:
• While last batch is cooking, heat butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then add banana slices in 1 layer and cook until golden, about 1 minute per side. Remove from heat and add syrup to skillet.
• Spoon bananas over waffles, then drizzle with warm syrup before serving.

WAFFLE JOY OF COOKING RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• I just use all-purpose flour, but I sift or whisk it before measuring. Combine all dry ingredients and re-sift or whisk. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks and add the butter (I used 3 tablespoons; the more oil, the more crisp the waffle), milk, and vanilla.Combine with a few swift strokes. The batter will be slightly lumpy, like muffin batter. If you want to add anything like nuts or chocolate chips to the batter, now's the time. 1/2 cup is about right for most additions. Beat the egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Fold them into the batter until barely blended. Cook according to your waffle maker's instructions. On mine that's about three minutes, or until steam stops coming out. Makes 12 4" square waffles. Oh, the vanilla is my own addition, and not part of the original recipe. I just like it in my waffles and pancakes. If you're holding your waffles instead of eating them right out of the waffle maker and want to keep them crisp, warm your oven to 200°F and put the waffles on wire racks instead of a tray or plate.

• 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.
