Warm homemade waffles are a welcome, satisfying breakfast on a cold winter day. Waffles drenched in syrup are a traditional brunch and breakfast favorite, but waffle dishes can also be served as part of a hot lunch or dinner. Light and fluffy berry-topped Belgian waffles are a luscious dessert any time of year.
Waffles should be golden brown and lightly crisp outside and baked to the consistency of a light moist cake inside. Batter must be thick, and quick baking is necessary so the waffle remains light and tender inside while the outside bake to just the right crispness. Slow baking will over cook the waffle and make it dry and unappealing. A good basic waffle recipe includes buttermilk, which is thicker than regular milk.
Buttermilk Waffles
This recipe will serve about 4 people for breakfast.
2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 eggs, separated
1 3/4 cups buttermilk
4 T. melted butter.
Preparation -
Heat the waffle maker. Mix dry ingredients in a bowl or measuring pitcher and set aside. In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until they just start to hold a peak...do not beat until stiff. Whisk egg yolks with milk or buttermilk and melted butter. Gradually add this mixture to the dry ingredients mixing with spatula. Do not beat. The batter should still have some small lumps of flour which will disappear as the waffles bake. Gently fold in beaten egg whites
Batter will be thick. Use a spatula to gently push it from a mixing bowl or pitcher onto a preheated waffle maker. Baking time varies with different waffle makers. Check the instruction manual, and bake for the recommended amount of time - usually 3 to 4 minutes for standard waffles; 4 minutes or more for Belgian waffles. Serve piping hot with butter and syrup, jam, jelly, or your favorite fruit toppings.

Hah. I remember my culinary professor told me that waffles are one of the hardest things to make unless you have a GOOD waffle iron/maker. One place I worked at had a Cast Iron Waffle maker and it worked great. Im sure they are pricey, but if you love waffles enough then I would buy it :)

With a little imagination, you can create breakfast, deserts, and even sandwiches.
Here are a bunch of ideas I found:
This is a great recipe for a special breakfast or brunch! Lots of variations!
3 C sifted all-purpose flour (or part whole wheat flour)
4 tsp baking powder
2 T sugar (optional)
1 tsp salt
4 egg yolks, beaten
4 egg whites beaten until stiff
1 1/2 to 2 C sweet milk or buttermilk
4 T melted butter
Sift dry ingredients together. Beat egg yolks until light and add the milk and melted butter. Combine wet and dry ingredients. Fold in beaten egg whites. Bake in a hot waffle iron. Makes about a dozen waffles.
Tips:
- Put the waffle batter into a pitcher. It is much easer to pour the batter!
- Don't overfill waffle compartments or the batter runs out on the sides of the waffle iron.
- Waffles are done when there is no more steam rising from the iron.
- After cooling, freeze extra waffles in a plastic freezer bag. Separate with wax paper before freezing.
Variations:
1. Apple Waffles - Add a teaspoon of cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Add a cup of chopped, peeled apple to batter. Serve with warm applesauce & sour cream.
2. Bacon Waffles - Crumble a few slices of cooked, drained & crumbled bacon into the batter.
3. Banana Waffles - Add a chopped banana to the batter.
4. Blueberry Waffles - Add 1-cup fresh or frozen blueberries(thawed & drained).
5. Chocolate Waffles - Increase sugar to 1/3 cup and add 1 square melted unsweetened chocolate OR add 1/2-cup cocoa and a 1/3-cup sugar to dry ingredients. Serve with whipped cream and chopped pecans.
6. Cinnamon Raisin Waffles - Add a teaspoon cinnamon and a couple spoonfuls of plumped raisins to the batter.
7. Ham Waffles - Add a couple of spoonfuls of diced ham to the batter. Sauté it first for better flavor.
8. Molasses Spice Waffles - Add a teaspoon of cinnamon and a 1/2-teaspoon of nutmeg to dry ingredients. Add 3 tablespoons of molasses to liquid ingredients.
9. Nutty Waffles - Add 1/4 cup chopped peanuts, pecans, walnuts or filberts. Toast the nuts for better flavor!
10. Orange Zest Waffles - Add a tablespoon orange zest to batter. Substitute 1/2 cup orange juice for 1/2-cup milk.
11. Pineapple Waffles - Add a cup of well-drained crushed pineapple to the batter.
12. Sausage Waffles - Add a couple of spoonfuls of cooked, crumbled and drained sausage to the batter.

Add chopped pecans to the batter. Just make the Bisquick stuff. I'd challenge anyone here to a taste test to tell the difference.
