If you’re feeling retro, and you want a fun waffle story and an old recipe, here’s an oldie:
From the 1950 Betty Crocker cookbook for a fun story about how waffles were invented (haha). See the picture at the top of page 72. Here’s the rather unlikely tale:
“The first waffle is said to have been made in 13th century England. A crusader wearing his armor accidentally sat in some freshly baked oat cakes. The cakes were flattened and bore deep imprints of the steel links. However, he spread butter on the cakes and ate them. His wife, delighted with the way the butter stayed in the imprints from the armor, made him put it on once a week and sit on fresh oat cakes. The were caller “warfres,” making flat honeyhcomb-like cakes.
Dutch colonists brought their cherished “waffre” irons to America. They were long-handled and very heavy to hold over an open fire.” – Betty Crocker
If you want old timey, maybe try Betty Crocker’s key recipe or variations on the key recipe for waffles on page 72:
WAFFLES: Amount 8 waffles
Beat well: 2 eggs
2 cups buttermilk or sour milk
Beat in: 1 tsp soda
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
6 Tbsp soft shortening (OR - cooking oil)
Beat until smooth. This is a thin batter. Bake in a hot waffle iron.
So there you have it!
