How To Make Waffles
So you want to learn how to make waffles? Well, you came to the right place :), this site is filled with different waffle recipes from the simple and basic waffle recipes to a bit more complicated recipes like the recipe for Belgian waffles. But don't worry, even the hardest and most complicated recipe is still pretty easy. Everyone can make delicious waffles right at home.First thing you want to check is - do I have all the right waffle ingredients? Most of the time you will need some all purpose flour, sugar, baking powder and yeast, salt, eggs, milk, oil and butter.
Second thing you want to check is - do I have a waffle maker? Waffle maker is what gives waffles their shape, it makes those square indents that are just made to catch some syrup, chocolate or cream that you put on top of your waffles. Now if you don't have a waffle maker you can still make waffle batter and then bake it like you would bake pancakes. It will not be quite the same but it sure as hell beats having no waffles at all :)!.
Now lets learn how to make waffles!
You will need:
- 2 cups of all purpose flour,
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder,
- some salt (1/2 teaspoon),
- 2 teaspoons of sugar,
- 2 cups of milk,
- 2 eggs,
- and one tablespoon full of melted butter.
(note - this recipe doesn't use yeast, the ingredients we mentioned at the beginning were just some general things you want to have at home if you want to make waffles regularly)
1. Separate the egg whites from the yolk and beat them until they turn into white snow.
2. Mix all the milk, melted butter, sugar, and egg yolks into smaller bowl. Mix until the sugar dissolves. Put all the dry ingredients (all purpose flour, baking powder, salt) into a bigger bowl and pour in the wet stuff. Mix until most of the batter is nice and even but leave some lumps that will tell you that you did not mix too much.
3. Gently mix egg whites into the batter.
4. You are finished, all you need to do is to bake your waffles. Just put one cup of batter in the preheated iron waffle and close it. It should take about 2 minutes, but check you waffle maker for specific instructions.
...and this is how to make waffles :) Bon apetit!

Nice and simple
This recipe is off the hook
My waffles are never as good as they are when I buy them. They are more like pancakes. What am I doing wrong? :(
I've just had the best waffles I've had in years!THANK YOU SO MUCH!
WOW that was fast
cool its my first time having waffles and they were great!
hey! how long can the mixture keep while refrigerated? =]
I actually found this site by some accidental searching, but am glad I did! Awesome recipes and great instructions.
Thanks.

I made these waffles with my waffle maker- they're simple but taste amazing :D
GREAT WAFFLES!
None of these recipes seem to say how many waffles they make. We're going to be making waffles for 10 people, and I'd love to try one of these recipes, but I don't know how many batches to make!
Great recipe. Just a tip for everyone. Be sure to not try to skip the whipping of the egg whites. It's vital to to the recipes consistency to come out just right. I made 10 out of the batch with a double square waffle maker. Once again superb recipe I will play with it when it comes to making different flavored waffles. Yum yum. Thanks for the recipe.
I'm eating my waffle now, way better than bisquick.
I'm going to try this. Sounds like a winner.
I do have a general question, do I need to grease the iron before adding batter?
lisa: in my experience it depends on your waffle iron so just try it
We followed the recipe to a T and it turned out like dough, not batter. :-/
This recipe sounds good, I think I'm going to try it and like it.
do we need to wait for the batter to raise ??
yum yum yum this is great!!!!!!!
Hi! I'm trying to make waffles that are hard enough to hold the in your hand but at the same time soft and crunchy, I've been trying for the last 2 weeks every recipe and all what i get is pancakes without air :(... any suggestions for me?... thanks for your help.
yay i never knew how 2 make waffles but until now im happy:D moih
love u xoxo
Hi, I'm making waffles with my dad. I was just wondering how many servings come out of just one batch because it doesn't say it anywhere here. But, reading all those awesome comments, I think I'll try it anyways. :);):);):);):);):);):);):);):);):);):);):);):)THANKS!!!
MMMMM''''MMMM...Good :)
Separate the egg whites from the yolk and beat them until they turn into white snow.
i dnt get dat...u mean the shells...:|
"Dough not batter" = yes, I am running into this problem too. Will beating the egg whites make the difference? Suggestions?
Ally - "Separate Egg whites from yoke" means taking the yellow part out of the the clear slimy part (aka egg white) of the egg. Let me see if I can explain the technique... read through before doing:
-Start with 2 empty small bowls.
-Gently put a crack in the egg shell.
-Once cracked, carefully open the shell just a little so the egg white runs out of the shell and drops into the first bowl - BUT try to keep the yellow yoke captured in 1/2 of the shell.
***If you crack the shell, and then hold the egg so it's vertical instead of horizantal, then gravity will do its part, spilling the whites and caputuring the yellow yoke.
-Once you have the yellow yoke in the egg shell without much white, then put the yoke in the second bowl.
- Take a whisking utensil and stir the egg whites so you get tons of little bubbles that look like white foam (aka snow). From the recipe it sounds like the more egg white foam the better.
I"m trying it this morning!
Hey,
I just made these waffles - yum! Best recipe I have tried so far!
I also added to the dry ingredients:
1 Tbsn of Cinnamon
1/2 tspn of Nutmeg
1/8 tspn of Cloves
And when I added the egg whites, I also added chopped up dehydrated apples - Delish!
"Dough rather than batter":
I figured out the problem I was having... On all recipes, flour is generally measured as "sifted" amounts instead of "packed" amounts = which means that when measuring flour, you should fluff it up in the bag a few times before measuring in the cup. If you measure a packed amount rather than a sifted amount, then you will use way more flour than called for and it will make the recipe doughy instead of batter-like.
Enjoy!
this recipe is simpler. gonna try to do this too (",)y
Hear ye hear ye. Thay waffles are splendid. All ye I favor quote "ay",
OMG, my mom just got a Texas shaped waffle maker for Christmas and i have been dying to make waffle with my dad.But he says it's to much work and we will make it some other time. with this recipe he finally came to his senses and said he would try THANKS!!=]] =]] =]] =]] =]] =]] =]] =]]...Okay so we made the waffles and I gotta say, DELICIOUS!!!!!!!! Thanks again for the recipe...
A Texas shaped waffle maker :)? I would love to see a picture of the waffle that comes out..cool.
We didn't have any milk so we used egg nog!
Skipped the sugar and they are yummy!
i wish it had yeast!!!!
i i i i i i LOVE IT! yay waffles! they were soooooooooooooooooo good i just want to make them over and over again! (which i did and they were even better the second time!)
Ways to separate egg yolk from white (albumen):
1--tall, thin beakers with slotted lids can be found at household or grocery stores for this, break the egg contents into the lid and the white will drip through the slots into the beaker, with measure marks showing your quanitity.
2--Pour egg contents carefully in smallest glass measure cup with a spout. Put small bowl on counter to catch egg-white. Hold measure cup in one hand, rubber scraper in other hand. In same way as draining water off spaghetti pot using pot lid, use rubber scraper as 'cover' while you tip the cup slowly over your egg-white bowl. The white quickly easily pours through spout gap and into small bowl - no broken yolk.
3--Mom broke eggs in half clean with a sharp tap on the measure cup. With a bowl for the white below, she'd switch yolk from shell to shell.
4--As kids, once we could crack an eggshell one-handed, we emptied contents into a big serving spoon, tipping the spoon slightly side to side, as white easily separated and dripped into a waiting smaller bowl beneath. The yolk never broke.
5--With a small bowl under to catch egg-white, hold a double jigger shot glass in one hand, crack egg open over it and egg contents will pour in with yolk settling and white smoothly spilling over into your bowl.
yum yum yum this is great!!!!!!!
I try it
My brother and I secretly made these waffles in my secret lab, nowbody knew that until the fourth day of making a waffle, my dad came back from work and, he smelled a super duper waffle. He followed until he saw a big lab full of secret weapons and more, he opened a small door, then he found me and my brother.
Hmm...I tried this recipe and mine turned out not good. Like pancakes in a wafflemaker. Maybe I didn't beat the eggs long enough??
Loved the recepie!!! It is going to be a recepie that I use weekly. With two boys! Thanks so much.
:)
These were horrible!
I was really in the mood for waffles and these were gross.. at least my dog liked them!
I mixed everything together and cooked them but still bad..
these waffles are AMAZING!!!!! i eat one hundred million of these waffles everyday!!!! everyone needs these waffles. they are the absolute BEST!!!
rubbish waffle recipe never going to use the website again thanks alot for wasting my time making these waffles
Yummy!! Great waffles!! The whole family loved them!!
My guess is that those who had waffles that did-not-turn-out-so-good didn't beat the egg whites long enough. It took me about 10 minutes to get the snow. Also, if the batter seems runny, just add tiny amounts of flour until you reach the desired consistency.
No information on how to use my cast iron waffel maker, Do I use a open fire or oven??
I bought a Cuisinart waffle iron recently. The waffles are good but they are not of a uniform color on both sides; one side is a nice golden all over, but the other side is mottled (sort of brownish and whitish). Is that normal or should I have the waffle iron replaced?
Thank you for the information.
@Elise: both sides of the waffle iron should be equaly hot, if you think your waffles are paler on one side because they are not baked enught there is probably something wrong with the waffle iron.
But also... I think that the bottom side of the waffles could be baked better because the waffle batter spreads evenly across the waffle iron as you pour it, on the other side you press the top down. So maybe this could also be the reason..
Can you use a george forman grill??
How many do they make?
It tastes like mini donuts. sweeeeet
This receipe is nice and simple. Made them with my 4yr old son. They came out great and taste even better!!!
great waffles man
These were truly amazing!
I've never made one like this!
Thanks for teaching me how to my my own homemade waffle, after I made my very own special homemade waffle,I began to have a awesome idea, I wanted to make a big store full of my delicious waffles!
And guess what?
I did not open a store.
nice and yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nothing really wrong with these waffles. Understand they will be denser than normal ones. I personally added 1 tablespoon of cinnamon to the recipe and kept forgetting to mix the sugar and water first. Also used cane sugar as for some reason I don't have normal sugar. End result.. crispy crunchy on the outside and a very golden brown soft and smooth on the inside. Yummy and I didn't need to add any toppings :D
sorry but i dont have a waffle maker can i still
make them [i want to try them]
It was great recipe ^^
thank you so much.
i don't have a waffle maker and i don't know

Wow, these were seriously good. Almost as good as my mom's!!
I never tried it before but from reading the comments they sound owsome:)
hey what the hell do i do if i dont have waffle maker????? yeah did u think of that one???
just made these waffles and they tasted absolutely amazing. thank you so much! great treat for the kids :)
Sounds good, i'm going to try them..but i do have a question
for the first step, are you beating the egg WHITES or the YOLK?? i mean, it just says "beat them" and i dont really get what that's supposed to mean..hmm
i'm going to try them anyway and see how it turns out
thanks for the recipe!!
I LOVE waffles, and I just got a waffle maker. I've been wanting one for a while. I heard that they taste better made with pancake batter, so that is how I made them this morning. They were really bad, all thick and heavy, not at all light, fluffy and crispy how waffles are supposed to be. It's probably because of the batter, but it possibly could be because the waffle maker we got is really cheap. So I looked up waffle recipes, and this one looks really simple, but the reviews say it tastes good too. I think I am going to make waffles with this recipe tomorrow. I'll have to see how it goes... It seems like a good recipe and I'm hopeful and excited.
Mmh delicious. Never made waffles before but the recipe was simple n every one i make them they love them. Thank you
The first lot stuck but I didn't grease the waffle plates. Next time I sprayed them and they did not stick but... they left a bitter aftertaste and they were soggy not crispy.
What did I do wrong?
Hiya Phyl!
I'm just a forum wanderer so...
Um, I'm just venturing a guess, but maybe :
The spray leaves a bitter aftertaste,
or
Something went wrong in the recipe
As for soggyness, either, when you took them out they were stacked, therefore = No crispiness or, it's the waffle iron
Hope this helps!
thanks, they are sooo simple and mmmmmm' delicioussssss!! :p
soo cool much better the nmy moms waffles
keep on doing this waffle recipe!!! awesome!!! a winner of all the waffle recipes. identical with restaurants quality.
yeah there is a heart shaped waffle maker at walmart.com
"Ay."
I really love that everyone takes the time out of their day to express their feelings about waffle's and what not. Im not alone anymore! Finally after all the years of hiding im passion for fluffy doughy delights, I'm finally understood. This is the best thing thats ever happened to me. Even better than winning the lottery, which i did. I feel like singing and danceing, and going to the store and getting fishnet stockings to let my inner diva reveal is beautiful sassy self. After all these years I finally have the corage to say I'm gay.
I hope these waffles don't make me fat.
AWESOME ! Thanks Im only 11 and this was really easy to do !
why do we need to leave small lumps in the mixture?
Hello Hello - Love this recipe. I double the recipe and store some in a plastic bottle for the week and my son has waffles for breakfast before school.
So quick and easy! I have this site on my favorites and I just use this site for our family waffle recipe. ENJOY!
someone asked:
1. Beat what? The white of the egg to make it like fluffy snow. When you add the 'snow' into the mixture it makes it creamy - airy and fluffy. Use a mixer takes less than a minute - ITS LIKE MAGIC.
2. mix it so it has bubbles - otherwise it will be very chewy
how much does the waffle machine cost
AWESOME! My family loves it whenever I make it.IT RULES!!
cool waffles
Hmm.......it sounds good, almost like cake. The problem is it doesn't say how many it makes. Sound good, sounds good, must try!
Im making these waffles right now!! After reading all of the positive reviews hopefully mine will come out the same! :)
my waffles are great thanks (:
Question; Someone commented above that they used dehyrdrated apples with cinnamon. I was wondering If I could use fresh apples sliced into small cubes or frozen blueberries even.
-Charlie
This recipe is awesome...I forgot to spray the waffle iron the first time around!
I love these waffles
im eating sexy waffles right now
it is really good instructions i rated 10.
Virgin to Waffles.....Not no more!
This recipe was easy, quick and TASTY. Great recipe for the first timer. Just follow the directions exactly and badda bing, badda bam, you got great waffles!
Clean sucks mind you....but worth the effort.
The waffles were really good (I added 1 tsp of vanilla and 1 tsp of ground cinnamon)! The kids loved them!! Will do again!
(Btw, it was our first time using our waffle maker and the 1st one stayed stuck to the sides...after cleaning it, we put a bit of cooking spray on both sides and it was fine...do people do this every time or is it just a matter of waiting to be sure it is fully cooked and you don't need cooking spray or oil??).
Really niiice but a tiny bit too 'eggy' tasty .. not enough sugar as well for dessert waffles but otherwise YUMMYYY .. I added some vanilla seeds as well xx
waffles are tasty ☺
thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
very nice recipe!!!!!

THanks for posting the recipe but was disappointed. THe waffles were very chewy and heavy....not what we were looking for.
Hi, I have just picked up my first waffle maker at the op shop, excellent cond, nice and clean, non-stick, old but 'solid'. Haven't made any, but glad I found your site and all the tips. Look forward to these later tonight... Read the comments, most of them all for the recipe, but disappointed with how rude some people are when they are no doubt not following the recipe probably. So, I will get back to you tomorrow and let you know how I get on. Even if I butcher them, it will be something I do wrong I reckon. Cool website, made my day finding it. Cheers :-)
