Buttermilk-Brown Sugar Waffles image

This recipe first appeared in The Times in a 2006 article Julia Moskin wrote about wedding registries and what items couples should (and shouldn't) include on theirs. A cookware set? No. Better to buy pieces individually according to a couple's needs. A waffle iron? Why yes, if there's any chance of children. These waffles are light, crisp and easy to throw together, like traditional waffles, but the buttermilk lends tang and the brown sugar an earthy sweetness. The secret ingredient here is wheat germ. It provides a lovely toothsome texture and crunch.

Time 10m

Yield About 8 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 eggs
1 3/4 cups buttermilk
1 stick butter, melted and cooled to room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour or 1 1/2 cups flour and 1/4 cup wheat germ
2 tablespoons light brown sugar or 1 tablespoon each white and dark brown sugars
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Nonstick cooking spray or butter

Steps:

  • Whisk eggs, buttermilk and melted butter in a large bowl. In another bowl stir dry ingredients together, then add to egg mixture and whisk just until smooth. Let batter rest briefly.
  • Heat a waffle iron and butter lightly or spray with nonstick cooking spray (even nonstick waffle irons require this step). Ladle batter onto iron (about 1/4 cup for an 8-inch round iron), close, and cook just until light golden brown. Serve immediately.

Overall, I thought these waffles were pretty good. I would definitely make them again, but I might adjust the sweetness level a bit.

I had some trouble getting the waffles to cook evenly, but I think that was my fault for not having the waffle iron hot enough.

The waffles were a little too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference.

I substituted almond milk for the buttermilk and they still turned out great.

The waffles were light and fluffy, and the brown sugar glaze was the perfect finishing touch.
