Eggo Buttermilk Waffles - Copycat

Eggo Buttermilk Waffles

3 cups flour
1 Tbs baking powder
1 1/4 tsp salt
4 eggs
2 1/2 Tbs tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup buttermilk (or 3/4 c. Water and 3 TBS Buttermilk Powder)
3/4 cup water
1/4 c. vegetable oil
10-12 Drops Yellow food coloring (optional)

In a mixer, beat eggs and sugar with a mixer on high speed for 1 minute. Add water, milk, oil and buttermilk, mixing well until combined.

In a medium bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt mixing well.

Add the dry ingredients to the mixer bowl, mixing on medium/high for 1 minute.

Heat the Waffle Iron, Spritz it liberally with non-stick spray (we use an olive oil Misto!) Pour 1/2 cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron, allowing it to spread evenly and cook about 1 minute. Do not cook longer, the point is not to brown the waffle, this will be done in the toaster later!!

Cool, place in freezer or vacuum seal bags and freeze. 

To enjoy, pop a waffle or two into the toaster on the lowest setting and toast, top with butter, syrup, fresh berries, etc as desired.

The recipe makes about 9 large Round waffles, but we recommend using a square waffle maker because they seem to toast more evenly and fit in the toaster better!

*Beignets

Time:  35 minutes
Makes:  about 12


2 c self-rising flour
1/2 c half & half
1 egg
3 Tbsp sugar
1/2 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
dash of salt
Powdered Sugar for topping

Mix egg, half & half, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt with a hand mixer. 

Slowly add 1 cup flour and beat until smooth.  Remove mixer and set aside.  Add the second cup of flour and stir by hand until soft dough forms. 

Roll dough out to 1/4 inch thick on a well- floured surface.  Cut into 1 and 1/2 inch squares.  Deep fry in oil at 350-360℉ until golden brown.  About 3 minutes.  You will need to flip them over at about 1 and a half minutes.  

Remove from grease and drain on paper towels. Top with powdered sugar after they have cooled slightly before serving. 



**Use a thermometer to monitor oil temperature.  If it gets too hot, the outside will burn and the inside will be sticky.  If it's too cool, they will soak up the grease instead of frying properly.
