This is one of the easiest waffle recipes I’ve tried and one that I use pretty much every time I want to make waffles for breakfast. This is a really simple recipe to follow and once you master the basics, you can start experimenting with the recipe.
I like to swap around the flour for wholemeal or spelt flour (just add a little bit more baking powder to counteract the fact that you are not using self-raising flour.
Buttermilk makes this recipe totally amazing, but if you are on a budget or you can’t find buttermilk in your food shop, just use normal milk. The buttermilk makes these waffles extra buttery, but of course, it also adds calories!
Hope you enjoy making this one!
