Belgian Waffles

May 10th, 2005 · No Comments

A friend brought over a Belgian Waffle maker, so of course we had to make some. We used this waffle recipe, with the addition of a teaspoon of baking powder for some rise. I would never have attempted this sort of thing without my new Cuisinart hand mixer (thanks Mom!). Beating egg whites into peaks and egg yolks for 5 minutes by hand is just not something I do in the morning. The pink stuff is pureed and strained raspberries mixed with cream.

The recipe made a lot of waffles, maybe a dozen (or two dozen pairs if they’re counted that way). Thankfully we didn’t use any of these recipes which call for as much as a pound of flour.

POSTSCRIPT: I just found Heidi’s recipe for power waffles, which is more like what we were looking for – yeast waffle with some substance. We’ll have to try these.
