Belgian Waffles

These are my daughter's favorite waffles. Many times belgian waffle recipes are very involved and time consuming. I'm not a morning person, so complicated cooking doesn't work for me in the morning.

 

These are about as simple as it gets and they work in any waffle iron.

 

 

2 eggs

2 cups flour

1 3/4 cups soy milk

1/2 cup olive oil or melted margarine

1 Tbl. sugar (optional)

4 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

 

1. Whisk eggs by hand then add the remaining ingredients while the waffle iron is heating.

 

2. When the iron is hot brush some oil over the top and bottom grid.

 

3. Pour the batter in the center of the iron with a ladle or measuring cup. (The amount of batter will be different with each waffle iron.)

 

4. Each waffle will cook for about 4 minutes.

 

 

You'll get about 6 waffles with this recipe. I like to double the batch and put the leftovers in the freezer. They reheat easily in the microwave or on low broil in the toaster oven.

 

When you freeze waffles place each one separately on a baking rack in the freezer for 5 minutes, then place them together in a plastic storage bag for a quick and healthy breakfast treat!
