Eggless Waffles

Preparation time - 5 mins
Cook Time         - approx. 4 mins for each waffle
Makes                - 4 waffles

Measurements & Ingredients:

All purpose flour(Maida) - 1.5 cups
Salt                                   - 1/4 tsp
Oil                                    - 3 Tbspn
Baking powder                - 3 tsp
Baking soda                     - < 1/2 tsp
Sugar                                - 2 tsp
Warm milk                       - 1.5 cups

Method:

Mix all the dry ingredients - Maida, salt, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and keep aside.










In another bowl, mix the oil and warm milk and to this add the dry ingredients mixture and gently mix preferably using a whisk to get a lump free mixture, but do not over do the mixing.  Because of adding the baking powder and baking soda, you could see the air bubbles in the batter.







You should be getting a batter of thickness like that of somewhere in between dosa batter and idly batter.




Now pre-heat the waffle maker.  Once it is pre-heated, grease the maker with some oil and pour a cup full of batter in the middle and let it spread out by itself.











Close the waffle maker and let it cook till it is ready.


Serve with powdered sugar!








Notes:


  • You can use 1/2 maida and 1/2 whole wheat flour or totally substitute with whole wheat flour.  I have tried with whole wheat flour as well, the taste was still good except for the fact that I felt it was denser.
  • You can substitute oil with butter
  • Do not beat the batter, just mix only enough to mix liquids and dry ingredients well.
  • Each waffle maker has it's own temperature setting so please check the user manual for your waffle maker.
  • A few other serving suggestions are maple syrup, honey, chocolate syrup, banana or blue berries, whipped cream.
  • Do not fill the batter up to the brim because it will overflow as we have added baking powder and baking soda.
