Why compromise when your bacon can meet your waffles for a very delicious treat? All you’ll need are the ingredients for the customary waffle batter and a pack up of bacon to create your bacon waffles. Unfortunately, frozen waffles top with a few slices of bacon won’t make the cut, so get ready to break a few eggs and whip up the beat.
Ingredients:
Ingredients:
- 6 pieces bacon
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 1/3 cup buttermilk
- 4 tablespoons canola oil
- 2 large eggs
- Brittle the bacon slices. You can take one of two approaches––cooking the bacon on a stovetop or in the oven.
- Heat an ungreased skillet on low and then place the raw bacon slices in the skillet. Line bacon in a consistent fashion so that it cooks consistently.
- Brown each side of bacon for about 5-6 minutes. The browning process will vary based on the bacon width, type of skillet you use and the stovetop heat.
- Move each piece of cooked bacon to a cooling a plate wrinkled with paper towels.
- Dab each slice of bacon to remove excess fat. You want to avoid having residual grease leak into your waffle batter––this will compromise the integrity of the batter and make the waffles taste oily.
- Rip the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
- Create the waffle batter. Using a traditional waffle beat will bring out and highlight the taste of the bacon.
- Unite flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large mixing bowl. Instead of using a mixer, consider hand mixing using a large spoon or rubber spatula so keep away from over-mixing.
- In a divide bowl, whisk buttermilk with only 2 tablespoons of the canola oil and eggs.
- Fold the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture and stir well using a large spoon or rubber spatula.
- Gently fold the pieces of bacon into the mixture. Try to deal out bacon evenly throughout the mixture so that each waffle will contain an even amount of bacon.
- Create the waffles. Owning a waffle iron is key to creating bacon waffles, however you can still enjoy this breakfast treat by simply turning your waffles into pancakes by using a plain old skillet.
- Preheat the waffle iron and brush each side with a small amount of canola oil. The remaining 2 tablespoons of canola oil will be used to coat the waffle iron in to avoid the waffles from sticking.
- Pour about ½ cup of the batter into the waffle iron. Amounts may vary based on the waffle iron size. Using ½ cup should accommodate a standard 7-inch (17.5cm) iron.
- Cook for 6 to 8 minutes depending on the heat and your individual waffle iron. The idea is to cook the waffle until it is lightly browned, however like ovens and stovetops, heat settings and irons will vary.
- Top the waffles with corrupt flourishes. No bacon infused waffle is complete without special toppings.
- Candied brown sugar syrup. Combine ½ cup of brown sugar, 1/3 cup of crushed candid walnuts and 2 tablespoons of maple syrup. Sprinkle mixture over each waffle.
- Homemade whipped cream. Skip the grocery bought whipped cream and makes your own. Combine 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of confectioner’s sugar in a mixer. Pour heavy cream in the mixer and beat until small white peaks form. Beat in vanilla and sugar until well shared and top waffle.
- Old fashioned maple syrup and compressed bacon. Sometimes a traditional topping is the best. Consider warming good maple syrup in a small pan before pouring in excess of a waffle. Then top with extra pieces of compressed leftover crisp bacon to accentuate the waffle.
