Categories Milk/Cream Breakfast Brunch Quick & Easy Blackberry Bacon Maple Syrup Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 Belgian or 8 standard waffles, serving 2 generously

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

6 bacon slices
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup well-shaken buttermilk
1 large egg
For blackberry syrup
1/2 cup picked-over blackberries
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
Garnish: 1/2 cup blackberries

Steps:

Preheat a well-seasoned or non-stick Belgian or standard waffle iron. Preheat oven to 200° F. Finely chop bacon and in a skillet cook over moderate heat, stirring, until crisp. Into a large bowl sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and stir in buttermilk, egg, and bacon including bacon fat (about 1/4 cup) until smooth (batter will be very thick).
Make syrup:
Halve berries lengthwise. In a small saucepan simmer berries with syrup over moderately low heat 1 minute.
Spoon batter into waffle iron (using 1 cup batter for two 4-inch-square Belgian waffles or four 4-inch-square standard waffles), spreading evenly, and cook according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer waffles to a baking sheet and keep warm, uncovered, in middle of oven. Make more waffles with remaining batter in same manner.
Serve waffles with blackberry syrup and garnish with blackberries.

Tips:

For a crispier waffle, cook it for a few extra minutes.
To make sure the waffles are cooked evenly, flip them halfway through the cooking time.
If you don't have a waffle maker, you can cook the waffles in a frying pan over medium heat.
Serve the waffles with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Leftover waffles can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
