Maple Bacon Buttermilk Waffles Recipes

BACON BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat waffle iron. (Waffle irons without a nonstick coating may need to be brushed with vegetable oil or sprayed with cooking spray before batter for each waffle is added.)
• In large bowl, beat eggs with wire whisk or hand beater until fluffy. Beat in remaining ingredients except syrup just until blended.
• Pour about 1/2 cup batter from cup or pitcher onto center of hot waffle iron. (Check manufacturer's directions for recommended amount of batter.) Close lid of waffle iron.
• Bake about 5 minutes or until steaming stops. Carefully remove waffle. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with syrup.

MAPLE-BACON BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

• Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons bacon pieces on each waffle grid. Spoon batter over bacon, using amount recommended by manufacturer. Close lid of waffle maker. Bake until steaming stops, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining bacon and batter. Serve waffles with syrup.

BBB BACON-IN-THE-BATTER BUTTERMILK WAFFLE, BOURBON ICE CREAM, BACON TOFFEE

Steps:

• For the bacon toffee: In a heavy-bottomed pot, combine the butter, water and granulated sugar. Stir to combine and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Place a candy thermometer on the edge of the pot and continue to boil for about 8 to 10 minutes; the syrup will begin to color and is ready when it reaches 305 to 310 degrees F. Stir in the bacon. Very carefully, pour the toffee onto a half sheet pan lined with a silicone baking mat. Cool. Break the toffee into pieces.
• For the bourbon ice cream: In a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat, combine the cream, milk and granulated sugar. Add the vanilla bean seeds and pod to the cream mixture. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Remove from the heat. Whisk the egg yolks together in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in the cream mixture. Discard the vanilla pod. Add the bourbon. Cool the mixture. When cool, freeze in an ice-cream maker according to manufacturer's directions.
• For the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron. Sift the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, granulated sugar and salt together. Beat the egg yolks in a medium bowl until they are pale yellow. Beat in the buttermilk and melted butter. Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients. In a clean bowl with clean beaters, beat the egg whites until they hold soft peaks. Fold the whites into the batter.
• Working in batches, spray the waffle iron with nonstick spray, ladle in batter and lay par-cooked bacon pieces in the batter before closing the lid of the iron.
• To serve, top each waffle with a big scoop of bourbon ice cream. Stab with a piece of bacon toffee and garnish with powdered sugar and maple syrup.

THE BEST BUTTERMILK WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs and vanilla. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Whisk in the butter until incorporated, being careful not to overmix the batter.
• Spray both sides of the preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending on its size. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close the iron and cook until the waffles are a deep golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. (If the waffle iron has a well-seasoned or nonstick surface, it may not be necessary to spray it between each batch.)
• Serve the waffles immediately with butter, syrup, jam, berries or yogurt.
