Stories from our readers

Surely each of you ate homemade crispy waffles as a child. The waffle iron makes a very tasty and aromatic dessert. Very often, such products are shaped into tubes or cones. Then they are filled with cottage cheese, condensed milk, protein or butter cream. They can be not only sweet, but also salty. In general, in cooking there are several options for preparing dough, from which waffles will subsequently be baked in a waffle iron.

Classic recipe

Crispy and aromatic products are especially popular not only among children, but also among the older generation. The standard technology for preparing this dessert is extremely simple and involves the use of inexpensive, readily available ingredients. To make traditional waffles, you will need:

  • One hundred and fifty grams of margarine 82% fat.

Bake the waffle dough in a waffle iron. Crispy thin products are obtained only in a well-heated appliance. Pour a tablespoon of dough into it and distribute it evenly over the entire surface of the mold. Close the device with a lid and wait about two minutes. If desired, the still hot product is rolled into a tube or cone and filled with filling.

Option on margarine

Using this recipe, you can relatively quickly prepare delicious crispy waffles in a waffle iron. Before starting the process, be sure to double-check that you have all the necessary components on hand. In this case you will need:

  • Sixty grams of margarine.
  • Large chicken egg.
  • A couple of tablespoons of sugar, flour and sour cream.

If desired, kefir can be used instead of the last ingredient. Also, make sure you have some vegetable oil on hand in advance. It will be needed to lubricate the device.

Sequencing

Before you bake crispy waffles in a waffle iron (on margarine), you need to make dough. To prepare it, combine egg, sour cream, sugar and flour in one large bowl. Pre-melted and cooled margarine is also added there. Mix everything intensively, trying to achieve maximum homogeneity. The consistency of the resulting mass should resemble that from which pancakes are fried.

This waffle batter is baked in a waffle iron. Crispy and aromatic products are obtained only in a well-heated device, pre-lubricated with vegetable oil. Place the dough in small portions on the lower surface, cover with a lid and wait for about two minutes. Fry the dessert until a yellowish, beige or brown tint appears. Hot products are rolled into a tube and filled with boiled condensed milk, curd or butter cream.

Kefir option

Using the technology described below, you can also bake thin and crispy waffles in a waffle iron very quickly and without much hassle. They can be served not only with a variety of sweet fillings, but also just like that. To prepare them, you will need:

  • a pair of chicken eggs;
  • one hundred grams of sugar;
  • a glass of wheat flour and kefir.

Additionally, stock up on vanilla and vegetable oil. The latter will be needed to lubricate the mold in which the products will be baked.

Algorithm of actions

Using this technology, you can relatively easily make homemade waffles in a waffle iron.

The recipe for crispy kefir waffles is very simple. Even those who have never worked with the test can master it without any problems:

  1. First, combine the eggs with sugar and beat until smooth.
  2. Vanillin and kefir are added to the resulting mixture. And only after that, pre-sifted flour is gradually added there.
  3. The finished dough, the consistency of which resembles not too thick sour cream, is placed in small portions into a heated waffle iron, greased with vegetable oil.
  4. Cover the device with a lid and wait a couple of minutes.

If desired, the finished products, which have not yet had time to cool, are rolled into a tube and filled with sweet jam.

Milk waffles in a waffle iron: recipe

Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside - this is how cakes baked using the following technology turn out. Such waffles can not only be eaten as an independent dessert, but also used as a base for making cakes. To make this simple but delicious treat, you will need:

  • one hundred and twenty grams of butter;
  • a glass of wheat flour;
  • four eggs;
  • two and a half glasses of fresh milk;
  • half a tablespoon of dry yeast;
  • two hundred grams of sugar.

Step-by-step technology

The whites are separated from the yolks, whipped into a thick foam and cooled. While they are cooling, you can move on to the next step. In one bowl combine egg yolks, salt and flour sifted through a sieve. Beat everything thoroughly with a blender and then dilute with warm milk and melted butter.

At the final stage, dry yeast and chilled egg whites are introduced into the almost finished dough. Mix everything vigorously and set aside for twenty minutes. After this, the dough is poured with a spoon into the middle of a heated waffle iron and baked. Literally after two minutes, the product is removed from the device and rolled up into a tube or horn.

Now you know how to bake delicious homemade waffles in a waffle iron using milk. Crispy shortcakes will become more flavorful if you add just a little rum to the dough.

Option with starch

This technology is good because it involves the use of a minimum set of products. Moreover, most of these ingredients are always in the stocks of every housewife. And all the missing components can be purchased without any problems at your nearest store. To bake crispy waffles in a Soviet waffle iron, you will need:

  • fifty grams of starch;
  • 100 milliliters of drinking water;
  • a pair of eggs;
  • one hundred twenty-five grams of butter;
  • half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon;
  • 150 grams of sugar and wheat flour.

The eggs are driven into a deep bowl. Pour granulated sugar into it and rub it well until the volume of the contents of the bowl doubles. Pour butter, previously melted in a water bath, into the resulting mass in a thin stream. Then add flour and starch sifted through a sieve. At the final stage, drinking water is added little by little to the almost finished dough. Mix everything thoroughly and leave in a warm place for half an hour.

After thirty minutes, you can start baking waffles in the waffle iron. The recipe for crispy products is simple, but they are obtained only if you use a well-heated device, the surface of which is greased with butter.

Place a couple of tablespoons of batter in the middle of the waffle iron, carefully level it out and wait two minutes. The hot product is rolled into a tube and filled with condensed milk, whipped cream or thick jam.

The classic dough, from which crispy waffles will subsequently be baked in a waffle iron, includes three required components. These are sugar, chicken eggs and pre-sifted high-grade wheat flour. To diversify the taste of the finished dessert, cocoa powder, chocolate, vanillin, chopped nuts, lemon or orange zest are added to it.

In addition to flour, a small amount of starch is often added to the dough for crispy waffles. It is important to ensure that all ingredients are at approximately the same temperature. Therefore, shortly before starting to prepare the dough, butter, milk, eggs and other ingredients are removed from the refrigerator and left on the table. In just a couple of hours they will have time to warm up to room temperature.

Waffles should only be baked in a well-heated oven. Then the products will fry evenly and acquire a beautiful golden hue. To thoroughly warm up the waffle iron, turn it on ten or fifteen minutes before the start of the baking process. Thin, appetizingly crispy products are obtained only in rectangular or round devices with shallow cells.

Before closing the lid of the waffle iron, the dough is carefully leveled over the surface of the mold. The residence time of the cake in the device varies from 1 to 3 minutes. Waffles whose dough is mixed with butter or margarine bake a little faster than those containing milk or kefir.

Particular caution should be exercised by those who use Soviet-style appliances to prepare dessert. As a rule, such waffle irons are not equipped with temperature sensors and mode regulators. Therefore, there is always a possibility that the dough will burn or overbake. To minimize the risk of food spoilage, pour a thin layer of waffle mixture inside the device and wait no more than one and a half minutes.

Regardless of the size of the internal cells of the device, it is not recommended to fill them with dough to the very edges. Otherwise, it will leak out of the device and begin to burn. To prevent sweets from sticking to the surface of the waffle iron, it is advisable to use a rather fatty dough for their preparation. For the same reasons, it is better to replace granulated sugar with powder.

If the recipe you choose involves the presence of baking powder, then the dough made from it must first be left in the refrigerator for several hours. Therefore, it is advisable to make it in the evening, so that in the morning your family can have breakfast with delicious, deliciously crispy waffles.

If you plan to fill the products with condensed milk, jam or any other filling, then you need to roll them into a tube before they have time to cool.

In Soviet times, preparing waffles in an electric waffle iron was quite problematic, since most housewives did not have the main and scarce assistant - the electric waffle iron. It was almost impossible to buy such waffles in a store, and only those who were able to obtain this “culinary tool” with cunning, ingenuity and acquaintances could prepare them at home. Today, modern electric waffle irons are an affordable purchase for every person who likes to play tricks in the kitchen, and unlike their predecessors, they are not so bulky, and preparing waffles with their help is much easier and simpler than three decades ago.

It’s not uncommon for waffle “cakes” to be smeared with cream or condensed milk, and the dessert is served on the table in the form of a cake. Decorate the waffles with powdered sugar, chopped nuts or coconut flakes.

Homemade waffles differ favorably from store-bought ones in that you will always know what products you are using and can be one hundred percent sure of their quality and freshness. Since the taste of the finished waffles largely depends on the quality of the dough, this point should be given special attention. The baking process is simple and does not require any explanation, so finally I want to give a couple of tips so that your waffles in an electric waffle iron turn out delicious the first time and without problems:
  • If you don’t have butter on hand, you can replace it with margarine;
  • To make the dough more homogeneous, use the same amount of powdered sugar instead of sugar;
  • Milk, kefir or sour cream gives the waffles softness. Waffles made with water will have a bland taste;
  • The baking time for waffles depends on the specific electric waffle iron. Thin waffles will be ready in 40 seconds, while thicker ones will need to fry for at least 3 minutes.

I offer you a wonderful recipe for waffles in a waffle iron, according to which I really love making them. It includes only 4 products that are usually found in every home. I make the dough for waffles in a waffle iron with margarine, but if you don’t cook with it, replace it with cream. There are many variations of the test, but I like this one the most. To prepare, you will also need a mixer and any waffle iron, even a Soviet one, like mine, and believe me, this does not affect the quality and taste.

The cream for wafer rolls can be very different, some like protein, others like custard, curd, chocolate, cream, or, as in the classic version, boiled condensed milk. But you can also do without it and just eat the waffles themselves for tea.

How to make waffles in a waffle iron

The recipe for waffle batter in an electric waffle iron is the simplest I know. So, I beat 4 eggs into a deep bowl, add a glass of sugar and beat everything with a mixer until foamy, but not to the same consistency as for a sponge cake, so three minutes at maximum power is enough here. I measure out sugar and flour with a glass containing exactly 200 ml. liquids, so be guided by this.

Meanwhile, I set the margarine to melt. This can be done in the microwave, in a water bath, or simply on the stove. I choose the last option, but here it is important that the margarine does not start to boil, so do not make the heat too high and when it has melted by about half, remove from the stove, then everything will happen on its own. I pour it into the beaten eggs and mix. Then add 2 cups of flour and mix. Baking powder or soda is not needed at all in this recipe.

If you want to make them chocolate, then it's time to add a couple of tablespoons of cocoa powder, mix again and you're done, but this time I'm doing it without it. The dough turns out homogeneous and quite liquid, the consistency is similar to muffins or pancakes. This is a recipe for delicious waffles in a waffle iron, just like in childhood, and when you try at least one of them, you will see for yourself.

Now I plug in the electric waffle iron and place it on a wooden board, as it will heat up. My waffle iron is from Soviet times, but nevertheless it copes with its task perfectly. When it warms up, I don’t grease it, since the dough already contains margarine, but immediately put a couple of tablespoons of dough on it. If you want to make them thin and crispy, one spoon is enough, and if you want them a little thicker, then add two. Now I close it and press it by the handles so that the two parts are pressed tightly.

The waffles bake quite quickly, and the longer it works, the hotter it gets and the faster it bakes. To check readiness, just open one half. If the color turns rosy, you can remove it. To do this, use a wooden spatula, carefully lifting the waffle from one side and transferring it to a plate. Then you can leave them like that, but I still roll them into tubes.

Immediately after you remove the waffle, do not pour the next batter, but roll this one because they harden quickly. If you do not do this immediately, but after 5 - 10 seconds, then when folding they may crack and break. Now each of you can make waffles in an electric waffle iron at home, as you can see, everything is simple and quick.

This is a simple recipe for waffles in a waffle iron, I hope you like it as much as I do. As you can see, just 4 simple ingredients make excellent waffles that you can fill with any cream. The best fillings are condensed milk, custard, Nutella, chocolate with nuts or protein cream. The main thing is to make the perfect base, and let everyone choose what will be inside according to their own taste. You can also not roll them, but eat them simply like cookies, which is also very tasty. Cook with love and bon appetit!
