THE BEST BUTTERMILK WAFFLES



The Best Buttermilk Waffles image

In creating this recipe, we tried out many different methods-folding in egg whites, milk versus buttermilk, a yeasted batter. But at the end of the day, this simple dump-and-stir was our favorite by far. Someone in the test kitchen may have even said this was the best waffle they'd ever eaten! The buttermilk makes this waffle ultra-light while the generous amount of butter makes for a super crispy exterior, leaving the inside custardy and soft. Finally, we kept the sugar to a minimum, making these the perfect foil for sweet toppings like maple syrup, berries or jam.

Time 40m

Yield about 6 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 stick unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
Nonstick cooking spray
Maple syrup, jam, berries or yogurt, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Whisk in the butter until incorporated, being careful not to overmix the batter.
  • Spray both sides of the preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending on its size. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close the iron and cook until the waffles are a deep golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. (If the waffle iron has a well-seasoned or nonstick surface, it may not be necessary to spray it between each batch.)
  • Serve the waffles immediately with butter, syrup, jam, berries or yogurt.

OLD-FASHIONED BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

Categories     Egg     Breakfast

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups (10 oz./315 g.) all-purpose flour
2 Tbs. malted milk powder or granulated sugar
1 Tbs. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. fine sea salt
2 1/4 cups (18 fl. oz./560 ml.) buttermilk
3 Tbs. unsalted butter, melted, plus room temperature butter for serving
3 large eggs, separated, at room temperature
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Canola oil for cooking, if needed
Pure maple syrup for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C) and have ready a rimmed baking sheet. Preheat a regular (not Belgian) waffle iron. In a bowl, sift together the flour, malted milk powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg yolks and vanilla. Add to the flour mixture and stir just until combined. The batter will be quite lumpy. In a small bowl, using a clean whisk or a handheld mixer on high speed, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Scoop the whites onto the batter an, using the whisk, gently fold them in evenly. The finished batter may have a few small lumps. If your waffle iron is not nonstick, lightly oil the grid. Ladle some of the batter over the grid, close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the baking sheet and keep warm in the oven. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve the waffles piping hot with plenty of butter and maple syrup. Serves 4.
