Honey Waffle Ingredients

The essential ingredients are:

• Milk – use whole milk or plant based milk.
• Butter – use salted butter.
• Honey – the main ingredient.
• Self-raising flour – or if you don’t then use regular flour and baking powder.
• Eggs – use large eggs at room temperature.

How To Make Honey Waffles

1. Whisk together milk, butter, eggs, honey and vanilla and set aside.
2. Add flour in a large bowl and make a hole in the centre.
3. Slowly whisk the milk mixture into the flour to make a batter and don’t worry if there are some lumps.
4. Cook the waffles according to your waffles maker instructions until all the waffle batter is finished and set aside somewhere warm.
5. Serve the waffles with extra honey and any fruit.

Recipe Tips

• Keep your cooked waffles warm by storing in the oven for 5-10 minutes at 200 degree F / 94 degrees C on a wire rack on a baking sheet.
• Lightly oil or spray the waffle maker before cooking each batch so that they slide out easily after cooking.
• For crispier waffles, increase heat on the waffle iron but keep an eye on them so they don’t burn.
• Avoid opening the waffle maker halfway through cooking at the risk of them breaking.
• Don’t over mix the waffle batter as this will make them dense.
