Whoops! |
Over flowed on my first try, filled it too much. |
Pictures taken on my iPhone.
I got this for Christmas, and this is my FIRST time
using it. Yeah, I’m slack. But I’m feeling a little better about getting up and
making breakfast these days. It really helps if I wake up on my own, and I’m
not woken up by little fingers trying to pry my eyes open.
So it is a wet and rainy day. It actually has been
for days now. Again, sadly! So, I might as well spend some more time on
breakfast than usual since we aren’t in a rush to get dressed and get outside.
Yep, the past two days have been pajama days…because what’s the point in
getting dressed if you aren’t going anywhere? Now, the babycakes waffle stick
maker is pretty cool and comes with a little booklet of recipes.. And I’d say
worth the money if you have kids who like waffles. (or husbands) I actually
packed these in my husband’s lunch box for tomorrow with a little container of
syrup for dipping. We’ll see how he likes it.
I used my own recipe though, going off of the buttermilk
waffles recipe in the booklet, so I don’t know how that affected my first try.
It definitely overflowed. But, I got used to towards the end. And I have a ton
leftover, enough to freeze, so that is always a good thing when all I have to
do is pop something in the microwave.
Whole Wheat Waffle Sticks
1 ¾ cup whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
2 eggs
2 cups milk
1/3 cup unsweetened
applesauce (instead of oil)
Mix all the ingredients
together, dry then wet. Do not over mix. Pour on to iron until it is barely
covering the bumps that make the hole in the middle of the waffles.
I'm pretty sure my sister in law got the waffle maker from Kohl's, but I found it at Bed Bath & Beyond for only $19.99! :) This is my new favorite appliance. I can't wait to try out all the neat recipes inside it, and did I mention the boys absolutely loved it. I couldn't keep their little fingers away from the plate on the counter, where I had all the leftover, extra waffle sticks.
