Time to L’Eggo

Waffles and pancakes have really always just been an excuse, a conduit if you will, or a kind of foil, for the real treat: butter and syrup. But I think there must be more to them. Somewhere out there, there must be a batter good enough to cook and eat alone. I’m ready to L’Eggo my Eggo if I can find a stellar waffle recipe (got one you’re willing to share?). Until then, is there really any harm in occasionally jumpstarting the day with a side order of Shady Maple syrup straight up?

Happy New Year to all! I was reading through the most recent Ideal Bite and thought that, since Canada was mentioned, I might remind everyone that the Canadian government continues to permit the barbaric and senseless annual slaughter of hundreds of thousands of seals despite the protests of millions of people around the world! Traditionally, people have boycotted any and all Canadian seafood as a means of pressuring the government into reconsidering their position. Perhaps this boycott should extend into other realms of Canadian production ... i.e. maple syrup! Stick with good old syrup from New England! Thanks!
I just want to add that choosing Grade B maple syrup (or even better but probably not available except in Canada) Grade C will not have refined all the minerals out so it's almost like getting vitamins with your sugar! And it tastes even better! julie www.YERT.com
pancakes? Oui, try this. My Grandmother in France used to do it that way (and I perfected it): 2 eggs 8 Table spoons of flour 1 Teaspoon of yeast 8 Onces of water 16 Onces of milk 2 melted Table spoons of butter 1 to 2 Tea spoons of orange Flower et voilà! Beat that until smooth. The batter must be smooth but thick enough, not watery. If so, add some flour and beat again. You ought to have a waffle griddle for that too and they are cheap, see this: http://www.absolutehome.com/web/catalog/product_detail.aspx?pid=59555&cm... Bon appétit!
I have perfected my waffle recipe so it tastes good and doesn't stick. I don't grease the waffle iron and it works well. My recipe is also egg free (uses soy instead of egg). * Exported from MasterCook * Waffles Recipe By : Serving Size : 20 Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 4 cups all-purpose flour 8 teaspoons baking powder 2 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup soy flour 4 cups milk (I use powdered milk in dry ingredients and add water with the oil) 3/4 cup oil Heat waffle iron. Combine dry ingredients. Add milk and oil and mix just till smooth. Pour batter into hot iron bake till steam stops about 5 mins. Remove carefully makes 5 ten inch waffles. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Per Serving (excluding unknown items): 178 Calories; 9g Fat (44.5% calories from fat); 3g Protein; 22g Carbohydrate; 1g Dietary Fiber; 0mg Cholesterol; 304mg Sodium. Exchanges: 1 1/2 Grain(Starch); 0 Lean Meat; 1 1/2 Fat; 0 Other Carbohydrates. NOTES : You can add any fuit or chopped ham or anything to the mixture. We like them with sliced bananas and strawberries drizzled with a little syrup and topped with Cool Whip or whipped cream.
Okay, I admit it, I cheat when making my batter - but they are pretty healthy. I also don't measure so you'll have to play with it to get your consistency. all-purpose flour (1.5-2c) wheat flour (1/4c) soy flour (1/4c) milled flax seed (2-3TBS) Baking Powder (1TBS) sweetner (1-2TBS) 1pkg instant oatmeal any flavor 1-2 eggs (preference) lite vanilla soy milk sift all dry ingredients, all liguids, blend until smooth (we like it thicker for waffles thinner for pancakes) Heat waffle iron w/think layer of oil. Cook to taste. We top with fruit, syrup, butter, whatever
I'm still working on the recipe as I tend to throw things together but I have found that using corn flour (maze) makes a great waffle (and batter for just about anything that needs battering). Make sure to use regular flour too!
