We had some free time this past Sunday and decided to test out our 1950′s Belgian Waffle maker. Daniel picked the machine up a few months ago and has made us waffles a few times since. Today we made Belgian waffles with bananas, chocolate and lots of whipped cream.

The recipe is so easy and it only takes a few minutes to cook. Here it is:

Daniel’s Belgian Waffle Recipe (serves 2):

2 eggs

2 cups of all-purpose flour

1 3/4 cups of milk

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 teaspoon of sugar

4 teaspoons of baking powder

salt

__________________________________________

Mix all dry ingredients together. Mix all wet ingredients separately. Combine both and mix.

Preheat waffle maker and pour the batter in. Close it and wait a few minutes while it works its magic.

While the waffles were cooking we made a chocolate sauce by melting chocolate chips with some sugar and cream in a small pot.

Oops! Almost ready…

All done! You can top the waffles with anything from eggs and bacon to chocolate. Enjoy!

Hi,

My husband and I also have a waffle machine – I’ve spent the last four years of owning it trying to make the perfect homemade waffle, and this recipe

http://www.waffle-recipe.com/recipes/belgian-waffle-recipe/

is the best I’ve found. It doesn’t do the slight crystallisation street cart waffles have, and it takes longer as you have to allow time for the yeast to activate, but they are very fluffy and take added flavours well (I often add cinnamon and raisins or cocoa powder). If you want a rounded waffle, two heaped tablespoons’ worth dropped on each section is about right.

(I hope you don’t mind my adding this, it very much added to my love of the waffle machine!).
