Weekend Breakfast: Easy Waffles

While the title may say Weekend Breakfast, these waffles are actually easy enough to make during your weekday mornings and I have many times.  The batter comes together quickly and I have consistent results each time I make them.  Rami prefers his crispy so I cook them longer, while I like mine soft so I take them out early.  If there is any leftover batter, I make the waffles and store them in the fridge in an airtight container.  They reheat nicely in the toaster oven the next morning.



I’m a pour-syrup-on-the-side-and-dip kinda gal.  What about you?



I love this recipe so much that I think I’ve made them over 10-15 times in the past two months.  Seriously, they’re that easy to make. My lovely cousin scored me a $70 waffle maker for only $10 on Black Friday.  It’s definitely made a place for itself in our kitchen.

Easy Waffles  (adapted from babble )

2 eggs
1 3/4 cups milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar

In a blender, beat the eggs, milk, and oil until frothy. Stir all of the dry ingredients together until well mixed. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, pour the wet mixture into the well, then stir just until the mix is moistened. Pour a scant one cup of batter onto a hot waffle maker and cook until golden brown. Serve immediately.

Top with your favorite fruit and/or chopped nuts. 



Well, that’s one way to eat it.
