Do you want to remember the taste of crispy and incredibly tasty straws that you knew from childhood? Then you just need this simple and always successful option on how to make waffle dough in an electric waffle iron.

How to prepare “Waffle dough in an electric waffle iron”

1. The list of ingredients you will use for this simple waffle batter recipe in an electric waffle iron is quite limited.

2. Melt the butter in a heatproof bowl. Set aside to cool. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with sugar (you can also use powdered sugar and vanilla).

3. Then gradually pour the cooled butter into the egg mixture and continue whisking. The mass should be airy and homogeneous.

4. The last ingredient will be sifted flour. Mix everything well. That's the whole secret of how to make waffle dough in an electric waffle iron.

5. When the waffle iron has warmed up well, pour a little batter into the center and cover with a lid. The first few pieces will take longer to fry, and then you just have time to remove the waffles and pour in new dough.

6. Roll the finished waffles (optional) and fill. Tasty, easy, and most importantly - homemade!

In general, a toaster perfectly “refreshes” cooled waffles and gives them crispiness (I don’t know if there is such a word) on top with a soft center.

BUCKWHEAT WAFERS Well, with buckwheat, or rather, with buckwheat flour. It's easy to grind from cereal, I think. The author believes that buckwheat has a strong, specific smell, so he suggests adding a little of this flour. 1 room temperature egg, divided into yolk and white 1 cup flour 1/4 cup buckwheat flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 3/4 cup milk 4 tbsp. drain butter, melted and cooled Prepare as before. recipe, i.e. beat egg whites, etc. By the way, you can skip this step and cook from a whole egg. There is a difference in taste, but there is less fuss. Mix everything dry separately, then everything wet. Pour the wet into the dry and mix. Gently fold in the whites last. All of these recipes can easily be doubled. 1 tbsp. honey

NUT WAFERS can be made from walnuts, almonds, pecans (very similar to walnuts), Brazilian, macadamia, hazelnut, sunflower seeds and a mixture of them. 1 room temperature egg, divided into yolk and white 1 1/4 cups flour, white or bran 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 3/4 cup milk 1 tbsp. brown sugar (this is unrefined) 4 tbsp. drain butter, melted and cooled or walnut butter 1/3 cup chopped nuts Prepare like all previous waffles, adding the nuts just before the beaten egg whites. There are about 20 recipes for nut wafers, for example, with pistachios or nut wafers with dates and raisins.

CHEESE WAFERS They can be frozen, but they taste best while still hot. 1 egg at room temperature, separated into white and yolk 1 cup flour 1 teaspoon baking powder (baking powder) 1/8 tsp. salt 1 tbsp. spoon of sugar 1/8 tsp. soda 3/4 cup milk 1/2 cup cottage cheese 4 tbsp. butter, melted and cooled Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and set aside. Mix all the dry ingredients and set aside. Mix the yolk, milk, cottage cheese and butter. Pour this liquid into the flour mixture and stir. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites. You shouldn’t be too zealous at this stage, otherwise the dough may fall off. In this recipe, you can replace cottage cheese with yogurt or ricotta. This bakes in my waffle iron for 5-6 minutes. If the waffles are not crispy, try baking longer or using less liquid in the batter.

CRANBERRY WAFFLES 1 egg at room temperature, separated into yolk and white 1 cup white flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 3/4 cup cranberry juice 2-3 tbsp. chopped cranberries to taste 1 tbsp. honey 3 tbsp. melted and cooled butter Note: juice 25%, i.e. juice+water+sugar. It is recommended to serve with cranberry butter: 100g softened butter, 2 tbsp. powdered sugar, 1/8 tsp. orange zest, 3 tbsp. fresh cranberries.

POTATO WAFERS 1 egg, room temperature, separated into yolk and white 1 cup white flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 1/2 cup potato starch 3/4 cup potato broth or just water 1 tbsp. sugar 4 tbsp. melted and cooled butter POPPY WAFFLES 1 egg, room temperature, separated into yolk and white 1 cup white flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 1 tbsp. sugar 2 tsp - 1 tbsp poppy seeds 3/4 cup milk 1 tsp. almond extract 4 tbsp. melted and cooled butter

MEAT WAFERS are meant from cooked poultry or ham, as another opportunity to use up leftovers, which is actually a big problem after Thanksgiving - throwing away is a sin, but no one bothers anymore. 1 egg at room temperature, divided into white and yolk 1 cup with a quarter of flour, white or bran 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 1 tsp. sugar 3/4 cup milk 2 tbsp. drain butter, melted and cooled 1/2 cup cooked shredded chicken, turkey or ham Prepared in the same way as previous recipes. Mix the meat before the protein. As always, it is very important to fold in the egg whites gently and not overmix at this stage.

ORANGE-BANANA WAFFLES This book has a whole chapter of fruit wafers, which starts with apple and ends with pineapple-papaya with pumpkin in the middle. I chose these fairly common winter fruits. 1 egg at room temperature, divided into white and yolk 1 cup white flour 1 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. salt 1 tbsp. sugar 1/2 cup orange juice 1/3 cup banana puree 4 tbsp. drain butter, melted and cooled There are no surprises in making these waffles. See above. For just banana waffles, the amount of puree is increased to 1 glass, instead of juice, the same amount of milk and 2-3 tbsp are taken. chopped nuts. Everything else is the same as always. Additives include cranberries, oats, carrots, cherries, strawberries, etc.

CRUBBED WAFFLES WITH CINNAMON Mix butter, flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt. Add beaten eggs. Mix well and bake. 150g butter, 150g flour, 4 eggs, 2/3 tbsp sugar, cinnamon, salt.
