Classic Waffles

Course Breakfast, Dessert
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings 12 waffles

Equipment

  • Nordicware Waffle Iron (https://www.amazon.com.au/Nordicware-Aluminum-Stovetop-Belgium-Waffler/dp/B00004W4UE)
  • Pastry brush
  • Whisk, hand beater or electric beater

Ingredients

  • 1 cup full cream milk
  • 1 cup self raising flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 1 block butter

Instructions

Batter

  • Use whisk or hand beater to mix self raising flour, milk, egg and vanilla essence for two minutes
  • If it is too thick, add a spash of milk until it is sloppy but not too thick

Cooking

  • Heat up waffle iron until it is very hot
  • Liberally brush waffle iron with butter on both sides and close for 15 seconds
  • Spread one big ladle over the waffle iron, making sure not to overfill. Self raising flour will expand as it cooks, so if it starts coming out the edges while cooking, that's too much.
  • Cook for 2 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes on the other side or until the second side is brown.
  • Repeat, adding butter and cooking more!
  • Serve with ice cream and maple syrup.
