Quick Yeasted Waffles
Description
Quick Yeasted Waffles start by warming milk to about 100°F, then combining it with sugar and instant yeast. After waiting a few minutes for the yeast to foam, the batter is mixed with all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until just combined, leaving some small lumps to keep the texture light. The batter rests for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing yeast activation to enhance flavor and slight leavening.
The waffles are cooked on a preheated waffle iron until they develop a golden brown crust and crispy edges, with a soft and airy center. Using yeast provides a subtle depth of flavor and improved texture compared to baking powder alone. The slight sweetness and vanilla complement common breakfast toppings like maple syrup and butter.
These waffles can be served immediately, making them practical for a leisurely breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
- 2 ¼ cups milk preferably not skim
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon instant yeast or active dry yeast
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- 3 large egg
- 6 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add the milk to a microwave-safe bowl and heat in the microwave for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes until it is warm, 100 degrees F. If it over heats, let it cool to 110 degrees F before proceeding.
- Add the sugar and yeast to the milk and whisk to combine. Let sit until foamy, 3-4 minutes.
- Add the flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, eggs, melted butter and vanilla and mix until just combined and no dry streaks remain. Don't over mix. A few small lumps are ok. Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes.
- Cook the waffles on a preheated waffle iron until golden and crisp. Serve warm with butter, syrup and/or other desired toppings.
