Gingerbread Waffles from Esther
recipe from the Family Fun magazine
This aromatic batter is slightly sweeter and more flavorful than the classic buttermilk. The delicious, make-ahead recipe will let you spend less time in the kitchen and more time with your family. We have it every Christmas Eve morning.
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 cup molasses
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 3 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- 1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- Whipped cream and fruit, optional
- Maple syrup, optional
Instructions
- With an electric mixer, beat the eggs until they're light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar, molasses, and buttermilk and mix until blended, about 1 minute more.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, spices, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and stir until smooth. Stir in the butter.
- Cover and refrigerate the batter overnight or cook immediately in a waffle iron until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Serve with whipped cream and fruit, if you like. Everyday maple syrup is really yummy with it too! Makes 14.
