| Homemade Buttermilk Waffles with sausage |
Big breakfast weekends are the best! They have the feel of a get-away B&B weekend, but at home. A big breakfast weekend happens when the weekday rush gives way to favorites that take a bit more time and attention in the preparation - pancakes, biscuits and gravy, or, this past weekend's feature...waffles, which were a end-of-holidays treat!
In the event that some of you may have been recent recipients of a waffle iron (Are we the only house to get Christmas appliances? no?), this recipe might be timely for you! Enjoy!

| Waffle batter, flour, waffle iron, eggs, blueberries, and pecans |
Waffles
Scald 1/2 cup of corn meal with 1/2 cup of boiling water.
Add: 1 cup of buttermilk
1 egg
Beat well
Stir In: 1 1/2 cup self-rising flour
Then add: 6 T. melted shortening
Spray the waffle iron with non-stick spray. Add batter to waffle iron and bake until browned or until the timer tells you its done.
Note - we add pecan or blueberries once we've poured the batter on the iron.
These waffles may be mixed the day before! This recipe makes 6 Belgian (large extra-deep) waffles.
When preparing pancakes or waffles, prepare a double batch and freeze the extra for quick weekday breakfast treats or to serve up in a waffle and ice cream dessert!

My boys LOVE waffles!! This is a much easier recipe that I'll definitely have to try :) I too make an extra batch of waffles (& pancakes) on the weekends so that my boys can have a warm breakfast before school. As a treat I sometimes add chopped (cooked) bacon or chocolate chips to the batter before pouring. Although, I personally prefer the blueberries!
ReplyDeleteYum, I've never tried bacon waffles! That would be a treat! I'm glad that this recipe might be of benefit to you! It is such a time-saver that you can freeze them and just reheat as needed. I love the blueberries too and since they have health benefits I don't feel so bad about eating waffles. ha-ha Thanks for stopping by and for the comment!
ReplyDeleteI love buttermilk pancakes, so I know I'll love buttermilk waffles. I've never froze the leftovers, but I do know they stay well if covered in the fridge for a week. pre-make them, don't cook all the way, freeze and then finish them, really quick. Thanks so much for sharing over at Sunday's Best.
