After years of making Waffles with Plain Flour, and over 25 years of baking the house bread with Strong Flour it never occured to try Waffles with itSuberb !
4 oz bread flour
1 oz milk powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
2 tablespoons Sunflower Oil
6 fl oz (just shy 1/2 pint) water
whisk and mix until smooth. (This is a thin batter that can be poured into a Waffle Iron)
I used milk powder so the dry ingredients can be taken out into the hills pre-mixed then just add water,oil and an egg like Pancakes
Dan, thank you for reminding me that I own a Griswold American No.8 waffle iron. Works as good as ever and double cream& maple syrup is just as nice.
ReplyDeleteAs an aside; dried egg works well in field batter mix.
Cheers Ian, can you recomend a Dried Egg source ? I used to buy it at Tescos but they no longer stock it, same for all the local supermarkets
DeleteI used to buy it from Tesco too, and haven't bought any for quite a while. A quick google came up with a source of whole dried egg, but even at its cheapest it would be about double the price of fresh eggs and you'd have to buy the equivalent of 6 dozen. Packing the odd couple of fresh eggs is probably easier at the end of the day.

ReplyDeleteCheers Ian I usually put the eggs in a zip lock bag wrapped up in the billy but have thought of something like this :- http://www.banggood.com/Portable-Plastic-2-Eggs-Box-Camping-Picnic-Folding-Egg-Box-Carrying-Case-Container-p-988486.html
