Equipment

  • Waffle Iron

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • Butter - for spread
  • Pure maple syrup - for serving
  • Powdered sugar - for serving
  • Fresh fruit - for serving
  • Chocolate syrup or chocolate chips - for serving

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix briefly to combine.
  • Add the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, sugar, vanilla and nutmeg. Mix well.
  • Warm your maple syrup. Pre-heat the waffle iron. DO NOT oil your waffle iron. there is plenty of oil in the batter to keep these lovelies from sticking.
  • Pour yourself a cup of coffee and catch up with your kids or your sweetheart while you let the batter sit and ferment for 30 minutes.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto your heated waffle iron. Follow cooking instructions for your particular model.
  • Serve with whatever your heart desires. Simple goodness with warmed maple syrup is my go-to, but whatever you've got on hand will do nicely to make this a special treat. Try whipped cream, fresh fruit, chocolate, fried chicken and spicy Korean seasonings. Pretty much anything goes. Eat long and prosper.
