Homemade Waffles with Cherries – Recipe

Waffles-with-cherriesFreshly made waffles are absolutely delicious, yet so easy to make.

My memories take me back to childhood, enjoying ice cream served in a freshly made waffle cone, while walking on the boardwalk in Asbury Park, NJ…I am still savoring that taste, and the moment.

Today I will post a waffle recipe my daughter shared with me.

This recipe yields 8 round waffles.

Buttermilk Waffles with Cherries – Recipe

Buttermilk Waffles with Cherries – Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour, unbleached
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 3 Tbs. granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. baking powder (I use aluminium free)
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 4 Tbs. butter, melted
  • 2 cups plus 1 Tbs. buttermilk (16 oz), room temperature
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbs. lemon zest
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, beat eggs yolks with sugar, until light yellow color and fluffy.
  2. Whisk in melted butter to form emulsion.
  3. Mix in buttermilk, vanilla, lemon zest.
  4. In another bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
  5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, do not over mix..keep it lumpy.
  6. In a small bowl beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  7. Gently fold egg whites into batter, using a spatula.
  8. Set aside for 5 minutes, while the waffle iron is warming up.
  9. Spray the top and bottom surface of the the waffle iron with cooking spray, just for the first batch. It will not need to be repeated for the remaining batches.
  10. Once the waffle iron is ready (green light is on), pour 1/3 cup of the batter onto the middle of the waffle iron bottom half, close the lid and wait until the light turns green again. I like my waffles on a golden side, rather than brownish.
  11. Remove onto a plate and keep it warm until all waffles are done and ready to serve.
  12. Repeat until all batter is used up.
  13. Serve with Maple syrup, whipped cream, fresh fruits, canned fruits, or any topping you like.

Notes

You can double this recipe to use up the whole container of buttermilk, since these freeze very well for future use.
