WAFFLE

Things You'll Need:

• 2 cups Waffle mix
• 1 1/3 cups milk
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil

Instructions


1. Step 1

Plug in and heat up the waffle iron first. Indication of waffle iron readiness varies by brand, so be sure to check your user manual if you are unsure about how to operate the waffle iron to make waffles.

2. Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, measure 1 egg, 1 1/3 cup milk, 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, and 2 cups mix.

3. Step 3

Mix the batter with a spoon just until mixed. Over-mixing will result in tough waffles.

4. Step 4

Slowly pour the batter into the waffle iron. I find that for a four-inch by four-inch waffle, using a one-third cup measuring cup and filling it most of the way with the batter helps to create uniform waffles and cuts down on spilling when making waffles.

5. Step 5

Carefully watch your waffle iron so that the waffles do not burn. Usually the user manual will give an indication of how long each batch of waffles should take to cook.

6. Step 6

When the waffles are done cooking in the waffle iron, carefully remove with a spoon. Serve as desired, with fruit (as pictured) or butter and syrup, or anything else you like!
