Ingredients

1 cup of wheat flour
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1 pinch of salt
1 egg
¾ cup of milk
2 tablespoons of melted butter
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (optional)

Preparação

Waffle recipe:

1 Preheat the sandwich maker: Turn on the FLAMA sandwich maker and wait until it has fully heated up. If your sandwich maker has a non-stick coating, there is no need to grease it, but you can brush on a little butter to ensure a more even browning.

2 Prepare the batter: In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the egg, milk, and melted butter, mixing until you have a smooth batter. If desired, add vanilla extract for extra flavor.

3 Cook the waffles: Place a portion of the batter in the sandwich maker, spreading it evenly to fill the space well. Close the lid without pressing too hard and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown. Carefully remove them and repeat the process until all the batter has been used.

Summary

Waffles are a delicious option for breakfast or a snack and can be prepared easily without needing a specific machine. With a FLAMA sandwich maker, you can make homemade waffles quickly and easily, with a crispy outside and a soft inside.

In this article, we show you how to make waffles in a sandwich maker, with a simple recipe, tips for achieving the best texture, and tasty variations to try.

Waffle variations to try in a sandwich maker

Wholemeal waffle: Replace the wheat flour with wholemeal flour and add 1 tablespoon of oats for a more nutritious version.

Chocolate waffle: Add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the batter for an intense chocolate flavour.

Banana waffle: Mash ½ a banana and mix it into the batter before cooking. This option makes the waffles naturally moister and sweeter.

Savoury waffle: Leave out the sugar and add grated cheese and herbs to the batter for a perfect savoury waffle to serve with pâtés and spreads.

Tips for the perfect waffle

Do not add too much batter: The sandwich maker may overflow if the quantity is too large.

Avoid opening the lid too soon: Wait at least 3 minutes before checking whether they are cooked.

Use fresh ingredients: The baking powder must be within its expiry date to ensure that the waffles rise.

Serve immediately: Waffles are crispier immediately after they are prepared.

Serving suggestions

Waffles can be served with a variety of toppings and accompaniments. Some options include:

Honey and walnuts for a crunchy, sweet touch.
Butter and jam for a classic flavour.
Fresh fruit and yoghurt for a lighter option.
Melted chocolate and strawberries to please everyone.
