The recipe I settle on this time is a sour cream waffle I found on Martha Stewarts website. (A place I have sent numerous resumes, but that is neither here nor there). I did modify the recipe with ingredients I had on hand, and flavors that I like in a waffle.
5 large eggs
1/2 c. Sugar
1 c. AP flour
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
4 tbsp melted butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (I added this)
1/2 tsp vanilla (added this too)
Beat eggs and sugar together for five minutes ( it really helps if you have a stand mixer such as a kitchen aid for this recipe, I don't and felt like my arm was going to fall off after minute 3). In a separate bowl whisk together the flour salt and cinnamon. Fold in half the flour mixture with the eggs. Add sour cream and Greek yogurt and fold. Finish with remaining flour mixture. Gently mix in melted butter and vanilla. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes before adding to your waffle iron.
The original recipe called for a cup of sour cream, and while I would love to tell you that I changed it to Greek yogurt to add protein and make it more healthy, the truth is that I was simply out of sour cream. The Greek yogurt did add a nice tang to the waffle. I also added the vanilla since I have always loved the taste of vanilla with cinnamon.
These came out okay. Not as crisp as I like, but I may try again. I have mine with peanut butter and nutella, the wife likes real maple syrup and butter, and my daughter likes to look at it and say it looks gross. Now my mind is onto the London broil and cause salad I'm making for Father's Day dinner tonight, and to find a good fried chicken recipe.
What is your favorite breakfast food? What do you like on top of your waffles and pancakes?
I've always been a fan of french toast, from since I was a little girl. And I do love me the NJ staple: Taylor ham, egg and cheese on a roll (though finding a deli that does this right anymore is becoming difficult)
