Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron while preparing batter.
- In a large mixing bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves for 20 seconds.
- Make a well in center of flour mixture and set aside.
- In a separate medium mixing bowl whisk together eggs. Add in milk, sour cream, butter, brown sugar and molasses and whisk until well combined.
- Pour milk mixture into well in flour mixture then whisk mixture just until combined (batter should be slightly lumpy).
- Spray waffle iron with non-stick spray.
- Pour batter into waffle iron (the amount you need to add will vary based on waffle maker size. For smaller waffles you'll only need about 1/3 cup for Belgian waffles you'll need about 2/3 cup).
- Cook according to waffle iron manufacturers instructions.
- Plate waffles and serve with cream cheese glaze, either pipe over top by pouring it into a resealable bag and snipping one end or spoon and spread over top.
Cream Cheese Glaze
- Place cream cheese and butter in a medium mixing bowl. Using an electric hand mixer whip mixture until well blended and slightly fluffy.
- Add in powdered sugar, milk and vanilla and whip mixture until light and fluffy.
- Recipe source: adapted slightly from King Arthur Flour
Notes
- *I got 14 smaller waffles from this recipe. For Belgian waffles you'll get about 5 - 6.
- **To measure flour, don't sift or whisk first, simply scoop with measuring cup and level top with a butter knife.
