When I bought my sandwich maker with 3 interchangeable plates, one among that was this waffle maker plate.
I have seen people go mad for waffles. But I knew it will be eggy and never tasted one so far.
When I made this for the first time, I was not sure about the texture and I made it soft like pancakes.
Then later I asked my friends, they told it should be soft and spongy inside, crisp outside. I tried from a recipe from this blog.
After that, I have tried 4 times and finally could come up with a keeper recipe. This recipe is easy and comes out perfectly.
You can try this out for your kids breakfast and they will sure enjoy it for a change from their regular breakfast.

Eggless waffles recipe
Recipe Cuisine: Continental | Recipe Category: Breakfast
Prep Time:10 mins | Cook time: 16 mins | Makes: 4
Ingredients
Self raising flour* - 1 cup
Baking soda - ¼ tsp
Brown or white sugar - 1 tsp
Butter, melted- 2 tblsp
Milk - 1 cup
Vanilla essence - 1 teaspoon (optional)
Lemon - ½ teaspoon *Self raising flour can be replaced with All purpose flour (Maida) 1 cup + 2 teaspoon baking powder + ¼ teaspoon salt.
Method
- Mix flour, sugar, baking soda (all dry ingredients) first with a whisk or you can sieve it twice too.
- Then add melted butter, milk at room temperature, essence if adding and whisk to a smooth batter. Lastly add lemon juice.
3. Heat the waffle maker meanwhile. Grease all the parts of the plate with butter or any spray.
Pour a ladle full of batter, just to cover the plate. Do not add more otherwise will overflow in the sides.
So while pouring itself, pour everywhere in the plate instead pouring at a same place.
4. Close the lid and cook as per the cooking time instructed in your waffle maker manual.
Mine takes 3 & ½ to 4 minutes. Take out with help of a tong or spatula.
Waffles tastes best when hot. Serve it with honey, or maple syrup or a scoop of your favorite ice cream. Or even Nutella.

I just made waffles with this recipe, and the waffles tasted great! Super recipe with easy to follow instructions. Although, as mentioned above, they weren't as crispy or golden as I'd hoped, but tasty nonetheless. Thank you! 🙂
Raks anand says
Adding lemon is important. It reacts with soda and gives the colour and crispiness. try next time without skipping any ingredients.
Raks anand says
Make sure your baking soda is active and fresh 🙂 It reacts with the lemon juice and gives the browning and crispiness.

Tried this recipie without skipping any ingredient but it kept sticking to the plate . I did grease the plate with butter . Wondering what went wrong ?
Raks anand says
More baking soda/ powder or water. Also make sure to heat the waffle maker well before pouring. Do not open before it gets cooked.

What is the shelf life of the 'batter' if not used instantly ? And also how should I store the remaining batter if not used ? By the way thank for the recipe 🙂

smriti ramdas says
Should we put more water or milk to make it runny? Because mine wasn't
Unknown says
Can we add baking soda at the time of baking? Or maybe 20 30 mins prior? Will it give the same outcome?

Yes, please adjust water to make it pourable. Same like pancake consistency
