Ingredients
180 g 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoon 2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1 large egg
240 ml 1 cup milk
120 ml 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
100 g 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
50 g 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Equipment
Waffle iron- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
- Measuring cups (for US)
- spoons
- Ladle
Directions
- Begin by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the egg until lightly beaten. Then, add the milk and vegetable oil (or melted butter), whisking until the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined—be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, ensuring the cheese is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a small amount of butter. Pour about ½ cup (120ml) of batter onto the center of the waffle iron and close the lid. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully remove the waffle from the iron and serve immediately. Top with extra cheese, chopped chives, sour cream, or bacon bits if desired.
Notes
- For extra crispy waffles, add a bit of extra oil to the batter.
Can I use a different type of cheese in this recipe?
