Summer is officially here, and you know what that means—waffle season is in full swing! Nothing beats the joy of hearing that satisfying sizzle as batter hits the hot iron, filling the kitchen with anticipation. 

The thing I love about waffles is how versatile they are. They pair beautifully with fresh fruit, whipped cream, and, of course, a generous drizzle of maple syrup. Picture a summer brunch, filled with laughter, warm sun rays filtering through the window, and plates piled high with golden, crispy waffles—who wouldn’t want in on that?

What is Pamela’s Waffle?

Pamela’s waffle recipe is a beloved classic in the world of breakfast options. What’s great about it is that it holds true to the spirit of the waffle — a crispy outside and a fluffy inside, designed to soak up syrup and other toppings perfectly. The best part? It’s simple enough for a Tuesday morning yet delicious enough for weekend guests.

The Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to whip up these delightful waffles:

• 2 large farm-fresh eggs
• 1 cup Pamela’s All-Purpose Baking & Pancake Blend
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup filtered water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

How to Make Pamela’s Waffle?

Let’s get into it! Making these waffles is a breeze. You’ll be surprised at how quickly you can go from mixing the batter to enjoying the aroma of waffles wafting through your kitchen.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Start by rounding up your kitchen gadgets. You’ll need a mixing bowl, a whisk, measuring cups, and a waffle iron. Don’t forget your favorite toppings because who can resist maple syrup and fresh berries?

Step 2: Whisk the Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, crack your 2 eggs and add 3/4 cup filtered water and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk them together until well blended. The eggs are the glue that holds your fluffiness together.

Step 3: Combine the Dry Ingredients

In another bowl, measure 1 cup of Pamela’s All-Purpose Baking & Pancake Blend and sprinkle in 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix these dry ingredients together. This ensures even distribution of the salt and adds to the consistency.

Step 4: Mix Wet with Dry

Pour the dry mixture into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil at this point! Stir gently until everything is mixed well. Don’t worry about being too perfect; a few lumps are okay. Overmixing can lead to tough waffles, and nobody wants that!

Step 5: Preheat Your Waffle Iron

While your batter rests for just a moment, power up your waffle iron. Each model is different. Check the instructions for the best preheating method. You want that iron nice and hot for the perfect crisp.

Step 6: Cook the Waffles

Once your waffle iron is ready, ladle an appropriate amount of batter onto the iron (generally about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on your waffle maker). Close the lid and let it cook for about 4 to 5 minutes. Trust the machine; you’ll know it’s done when the steam subsides.

Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Carefully remove the waffle, as they can be a little delicate at first. I like to keep them warm in the oven while I cook the rest. Now, the fun begins! Load up your waffles with your favorite toppings and dig in.

Notes

Here are some tips to make these waffles even better:

• Use room temperature eggs. They incorporate better and create fluffier waffles.
• Don’t skip the oil. It aids in achieving that wonderful crispiness.
• Experiment with add-ins. Mix in chocolate chips, pecans, or fresh blueberries for a twist!
• Keep the waffles warm. Store cooked waffles on a baking sheet in a low oven while you finish the batter.
• Test your iron. Different waffle irons have different cooking times, so adjust accordingly.

Storage Tips

• Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
• Freeze: These waffles freeze beautifully. Just make sure to separate them with parchment paper and store them in a freezer bag for up to three months.
• Reheat: A toaster or oven works wonders for reheating and bringing back that crispy texture.

Serving Suggestions

Looking to amp up your waffle experience? Here are five delightful ideas:

• Classic Maple Syrup: Drizzle warm maple syrup over your waffles. The sweetness complements the lightness beautifully.
• Fresh Berries: Top with strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries. Fresh fruit adds an appealing pop of color and flavor.
• Greek Yogurt and Honey: Swap syrup for a dollop of Greek yogurt drizzled with honey. It’s a protein-packed, creamy delight.
• Nut Butter Bliss: Spread almond or peanut butter on top. Add sliced bananas for that nutritious crunch.
• Ice Cream Treat: Indulge with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. You have officially reached dessert status!

What Other Substitutes Can I Use in Pamela’s Waffle Recipe?

Feeling adventurous or have dietary restrictions? Here are some substitutes that work wonderfully:

• Almond Flour: For a nutty flavor, use almond flour instead of Pamela’s blend. Adjust liquid amounts slightly as it absorbs more moisture.
• Flax Eggs: For a vegan option, substitute flax eggs (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed with 2.5 tablespoons water equals one egg).
• Oat Flour: Swap Pamela’s blend for oat flour for a slightly heartier waffle; just be aware that it alters the texture a bit.
• Coconut oil: Use melted coconut oil instead of vegetable oil for a tropical twist.
• Sparkling Water: Replace filtered water with sparkling water to add airiness to the batter, enhancing that fluffy texture.
