Waffles

A delicious recipe for waffles, courtesy of my friend's baking dad.

As for quantities, I made a double recipe for a party with 8 friends who ate waffles until they couldn't see straight anymore, and then I still had so many waffles left I ate waffles for the rest of the week. I then proceeded to make half this recipe for my family of four, and I think it sufficed. It really depends on how hungry your company is.

Ingredients:

  • 500g self-raising flour
  • 1/2 litre of milk
  • 6 eggs
  • 200g sugar
  • 150g butter
  • 2 bags of vanilla sugar
  • 1 tbsp of baking powder
  • 150-250ml sparkling water (optional)

Mix the eggs, the sugar and the milk. Melt the butter and stir into the milk mixture, then add the flour, vanilla sugar and baking powder. If the dough is too thick, add some sparkling water. Bake in a greased waffle iron on medium-high heat.

Tips for topping:

  • freshly whipped cream fresh strawberries and raspberries
  • simmer chunks of pear in some water with a few drops of vanilla essence, serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and hot chocolate sauce
  • nutella and chopped nuts or brésilienne nuts (my favourite!)
  • banana and hot chocolate sauce (scratch the above, this is my favourite!)
  • any combination of the above
