Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 16 (4-inch) waffles

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup dried powdered buttermilk
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 large eggs
3 cups water
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
vegetable oil

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Sift together flour, dried powdered buttermilk, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

    Step 2

    Refrigerate this "from-scratch mix" in plastic storage bags until you’re hungry for waffles. (It will keep for 1 month.)

    Step 3

    On a waffle morning, whisk eggs in a large bowl until blended, then whisk in water and melted butter.

    Step 4

    Whisk dry ingredients into liquid mixture just until smooth.

    Step 5

    Brush a preheated waffle iron lightly with vegetable oil and spoon batter—about 2 cups for 4 waffles—in iron, spreading quickly.

    Step 6

    Cook waffles according to manufacturer’s instructions, transferring as cooked to rack of a preheated 250°F oven to keep warm. (If you don’t intend to use the entire mix at once, divide dry-ingredient mixture into thirds and transfer to 3 sealable plastic bags to refrigerate. You will need 1 egg, 1 cup water, and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter for each bag.)
