Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 25 minutes
Servings: 8 Waffles

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Soft White or Heritage Wheat Flour (fresh milled)
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/4 tsp Pink Salt
  • 2 tsp Coconut Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1-2 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 1/2 cups Buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup Heavy Cream

Method
 

  1. Combine your flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a bowl.
  2. Slowly add the buttermilk. Now, add the heavy cream. If using just milk, add that in like the buttermilk. Whisk it all together.
  3. Add the egg and vanilla extract. Whisk this together with rest of the ingredients.
  4. The batter should be a little runny. Not thick like pancake batter but a little thinner. If your batter is thick, just add a little buttermilk/milk in 1 tbsp increments.
  5. Turn on your waffle maker. Most have a light when it's ready. Once it turns green, it's ready to go.
  6. With a 1/2 cup measurement cup, scoop the batter up and pour it into the center of the waffle iron. Make sure not to add too much or it will over spill on the sides of your waffle maker.
  7. Close the lid of the waffle maker. Once you see the green light, they are ready to remove.
  8. Top with butter and warm syrup. Ilove serving these with fruit, bacon and scrambled eggs.

Notes

  1. If you are using a different flour, you might need more or less of the buttermilk/milk. Start with 1 cup and add gradually until you get the thin batter. Not runny, but not thick like pancake batter.
  2. You can use all milk if you like. I just love the fluffiness that buttermilk gives these waffles.
  3. This recipe makes 8 waffles in the maker I am using in the photos. Depending on the size of your maker, that will determine how many you get.
