Easy waffles

Easy waffles

An absolute favourite in any home, and so easy to make.

Ingredients:

2 cups self raising flour
½  tsp baking soda
A pinch of salt
3 eggs separated
1½ cups milk
30 g melted butter

Directions:

1. In a large bowl mix together the flour, baking soda and salt.
2. Make a well in the middle, add the egg yolks and the milk and whisk in gradually incorporating the flour from around the sides to form a lump free batter.
3. Fold in the melted butter.
4. Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks, and using a metal spoon fold them into the batter.
5. Heat the waffle iron and cook the waffles according to the appliance manufacturer’s instructions.
6. If you don’t have a waffle iron then you can make ‘poffles’ - cook the batter in a pan like crispy pikelets.
7. Top with maple syrup, honey or lemon curd and your favourite fresh or cooked fruit for a weekend treat that’s easy and delicious.

Notes:

Leftover waffles can be frozen and reheated in a warm oven. If you have left over batter, cook it but leave the waffles slightly under done. Freeze and use the toaster to reheat without overcooking them.
