Serves 8Ingredients
3 eggs
1-1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (Mexican preferred)
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons sugar
fruit or confectioners’ sugar (see below)
Instructions
Beat eggs in a bowl until thick. Add milk, butter, and vanilla and beat for 2 minutes. Combine remaining ingredients (except for fruit or confectioners’ sugar), sift into egg mixture, and beat well. Batter should be thick but pourable; add additional milk if necessary.
Butter waffle iron, heat, and pour batter onto hot iron. Serve with sliced bananas and strawberries; blueberries and sliced peaches; poached pears and cranberries; or sliced apples and cinnamon. Or brush waffles with melted butter and sprinkle with confectioners’ sugar before serving.
