Mom! Will you make me waffles?
Nick had yet another birthday! He was attending a wedding up in Canada this week, so we will be celebrating all three July family birthdays this weekend. I adore this picture of him when we went sailing in Maine. He commented how much Canada reminded him of Maine and that beautiful harbor view they remembered. Nick has earned the name "Nick Danger" for good reason. He has brought us joy, worry, ultimate laughter and, I may add, he is fabulously handsome (spoken like an adoring Mother)! We just adore this kid! Good times......more to be had! What better way to begin the weekend mornings than with delicious, hot homemade waffles!
ESTELLE'S WAFFLES
1 3/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 Tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 beaten egg yolks
1 3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 egg whites - beaten stiffly
Mix all dry ingredients. Combine yolks and milk. Stir into dry ingredients. Stir in oil and mix. GENTLY fold in beaten egg whites, do not over mix.
Pour about 1/2 cup at a time into waffle iron.
The waffles look divine; I made some for my grandson a few weeks ago when he was here. I don't know why I don't do them more often, we all love how the maple syrup gets trapped in the crevices, XOXO
