Cream waffles
Instructions:
-
Waffles have been an American dessert, brunch dish, and supper standby. They were introduced in the 1800s by the Dutch, and a waffle iron carved with a bride's initials and wedding date was a customary wedding gift. The Scandinavians make heart-shaped waffles and serve them with fresh berries or jam. Belgian waffles, baked in the deep-gridded irons, are a favorite dessert. Serve the waffles here with butter and honey or maple syrup, or with whipped cream and berries.
- 5 eggs;
- 1⁄2 cup sugar;
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt;
- 1 cup all-purpose flour;
- 1 cup sour cream;
- 1⁄4 cup butter, melted.
- In the large bowl of an electric mixer, beat the eggs and sugar on high speed until mixture forms ribbons when beaters are lifted from the bowl, about 10 minutes. Beat in the salt.
- Sprinkle the flour over the surface of the batter and, with a rubber spatula, fold in the flour. Fold in the sour cream and butter. Let mixture stand 10 minutes.
- Heat a waffle iron, pour on batter, and bake waffles until crisp and light brown.
