How to make yummy waffles without buttermilk

There’s nothing better than waking up to waffles. They hold a special place as far as breakfast dishes go: they’re tastier than toast, more interesting than pancakes, and they’re a lot more exciting to make that muesli! While you will need a waffle machine to cook them from scratch, waffles are easier to whip up than you think.

Cook waffles, one at a time. If batter becomes too thick upon standing, thin with a little more milk. Bake waffles until crisp and brown outside and soft inside. Serve immediately with butter, syrup, or your choice of toppings.

Step 8

Waffles can be frozen, and reheated waffles taste just as good as when they’re made from scratch. To freeze waffles, and to avoid them losing their shape, don’t put them straight into freezer bags. First, cool them on wire racks as soon as they come off the griddle. Then, lay them on a tray that’s lined with baking paper, and place another layer of baking paper on top. Put them into freezer. Once frozen (it should take around 6 hours) carefully place them into freezer bags and straight back into the freezer. Frozen waffles last up to three months.
