Waffle Hack

Of all the sweet breakfast food choices, my favorite might be waffles.  I love their light crispiness, and how flavorful they are!  They are a great vehicle for delicious toppings, but can be eaten on their own and still enjoyed.  They even reheat well, in the toaster.  Simply said, I love them.

A few weeks ago, I was trying to use up some sour cream (I don't buy it very often, and using it up often stumps me), so I found a waffle recipe that used it.  I made it as an afternoon snack, and ended up topping it with more sour cream and raspberry jam.  It was amazingly tasty!  I was impressed and surprised!  

Here is the waffle recipe, and then if you have extra sour cream, try topping the waffles with sour cream and jam.  You won't regret it!

Sour Cream Waffles
from 101 cookbooks

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter melted
1 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
3 large eggs

Heat your waffle iron.  Whisk dry ingredients in a bowl.  Whisk wet ingredients in another bowl.  Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.  Don't over mix.  Cook batter in the waffle iron until you have used up all the batter.  Serve as soon as the waffles are done, or freeze with a sheet of wax paper in between each waffle.  Serve with sour cream and jam.
