Sunday Morning Waffles

As I sit here sipping my coffee I'm also making fresh waffles for my youngest daughter and her friend who I think will be waking up soon. I was wondering (to myself) if I posted my waffle recipe on my site yet... I'm sure I have... but I was going to check to make sure. In the meantime I realized while making it that I didn't have a few of the ingredients called for so, as usual (for me anyway) I improvised. I love the finished product so it looks like I have a brand new waffle recipe to offer my readers now!

It's a nice thick Belgian waffle that is happy with butter and syrup, or as a dessert with berries, powdered sugar or whipped cream. They are even delicous completely plain (that's how I typically eat them!) I think they taste a little like a cake donut. They
are fabulous and I hope you enjoy them too.


Belgian Waffles
1 1/2 c flour
1 t salt
1/2 t baking soda
2/3 c sugar

1 egg
2 T canola or vegetable oil
1/2 c heavy cream
1 c milk
1 T vinegar
1 t vanilla


Mix the flour, salt and baking soda in a bowl with a whisk to blend. In another bowl add the rest of the ingredients and whisk smooth and incorporated. Add to the flour mixture and whisk until most of the lumps are gone but not completely smooth. At this point you can cover and refrigerate your batter until the next morning if you like, or you can use it right away. Using a waffle maker, make the waffles according to your appliances directions.

Makes about 8 large Belgian waffles.
