Buttermilk Waffles

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup dried powdered buttermilk
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 large eggs
• 3 cups water
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• vegetable oil

Steps

1. Sift the flour, dried powdered buttermilk, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt together.
2. Keep the dry mix in plastic storage bags in the refrigerator until needed, for up to 1 month.
3. When ready to make waffles, whisk the eggs in a large bowl until blended, then whisk in the water and melted butter.
4. Mix the dry ingredients into the liquids with a whisk only until smooth.
5. Lightly brush a preheated waffle iron with vegetable oil. Spoon in about 2 cups batter for 4 waffles and spread quickly.
6. Cook as directed by the waffle iron manufacturer, moving cooked waffles to a rack in a preheated 250°F oven to keep warm. To use only part of the mix, divide the dry mixture into thirds and put in 3 sealable plastic bags to refrigerate. For each bag, use 1 egg, 1 cup water and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter.
