My baby boy, OK, he's not so little anymore. He's actually a senior who is about to graduate the from the University of Arizona. Go Son!!! He is home for spring break and can I just say that I am one happy mama for sure. I have been cooking up some of his favorite foods. Starting with some yeasty waffles.
They have all the goodness of regular waffles plus all of the wonderful yeasty flavor. If you eat these you will never go back to the boxed kind again. Oh, these freeze well too; so you can make ahead if you like.
Here are the ingredients you need:
2-1/2 cups flour
2 cups warm milk
3 tbls. sugar
1-1/2 tsp. yeast
2 tbls. vanilla bean paste (you can use plain vanilla, but the vanilla bean paste adds all the wonderful seeds that make the waffle look so nice, plus they're just so doggone cool)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/3 cup melted butter
Mix the dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl mix the eggs and vanilla and the melted butter. Slowly add the warm milk. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until there are just a few big lumps left. Cover and set in a warm place for about an hour till it becomes all yeasty and bubbly. Cook them in your waffle maker for about 5-7 minutes. Serve warm with maple syrup or your favorite fruit syrup.
