Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup pulp free orange juice
4 tablespoons melted butter
3 tablespoons grated orange zest

Steps:

  • In large bowl sift together flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.
  • In separate bowl combine eggs, milk, orange juice and butter; beat well. Add orange zest to egg mixture ; pour this into flour mixture beating well until mixture is smooth.
  • Ladle onto hot, well-oiled waffle iron and cook until waffles are golden. Serve hot with butter, jam and syrup.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cranberries. Fresh or frozen cranberries can be used for this recipe. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • Zest the orange before juicing it. This will help to release the orange's essential oils and give the waffles a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will help the gluten in the flour to relax and make the waffles more tender.
  • Cook the waffles on a hot griddle. This will help to create a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior.
  • Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings. Butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream are all great options.

Conclusion:

Cranberry orange waffles are a delicious and festive breakfast treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a special breakfast, give these waffles a try!
