Buttermilk Waffles

While the waffles can be eaten directly from the waffle iron, they will have a crispier exterior if rested in the oven for 10 minutes. Buttermilk powder is available in most supermarkets and is generally located near the dried milk products or in the baking aisle. Leftover buttermilk powder, which can be used in a number of baking applications, can be kept in the refrigerator for up to year. Seltzer, also known as club gives these waffles a light texture that would otherwise be provided by whipped egg whites. Use a freshly opened container of seltzer for maximum lift. We prefer the texture of the waffles made in a classic waffle iron, but a Belgian waffle iron will work, though it will make fewer waffles. Serve waffles with butter and warm maple syrup.
