Buttermilk Waffle Recipe
Quick, kid-approved spelt-flour waffles ready in 15 minutes! Crispy outside, tender inside, perfect for breakfast or school lunch. Swap in any flour—whole wheat, oat, or gluten-free—to suit your taste. Simple, versatile, and utterly delicious.
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients until the batter is smooth with no lumps remaining.
Preheat Waffle Iron : Preheat your waffle iron until it’s fully ready for use.
Cook the Waffles: Lightly grease your waffle iron with cooking spray or brush with a little oil. Pour batter onto the hot waffle iron, close the lid, and cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions, usually around 2-5 minutes, or until golden brown.
Serve: Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your choice of toppings like powdered sugar, fresh berries or whipped cream. Guten Appetit!
Store: I have found storing them at room temperature keeps the taste the best. They also freeze well.
