Spiced Waffles with Hot Honey Butter
The first complete meal is - no surprise - a breakfast meal. We love breakfast for dinner, so I jumped right in with the first recipe. What's on this complete meal menu?
- Spiced Waffles with Hot Honey Butter
- Bacon Strips
- Fresh Fruit Cups of Choice
- Hot Coffee
So fancy, Lois! 😁
We skipped the coffee because it was dinner. I bought keto bacon which fried up into more of a crumble than a strip, and instead of a fruit cup I opted for satsuma mandarins, which just arrived at my grocer this week for the first time this season. Yum.
We have waffles about once every six weeks or so, and I usually use a buttermilk recipe. I liked this recipe's addition of spices, although we more than doubled the amount of cinnamon. I was unsure about the amount of honey in the syrup - one full cup??? My family barely uses syrup on their waffles, so I modified by using only 4 Tbsp butter and 1/2 C honey.
Result: 👍 Would make again.
Whipping the whites is fussy but does make a light, spongy waffle. The spices were a great addition & I will do this in the future on any recipe. The honey butter was the surprise hit - not only did we use it on our waffles, we used all of it! It was a fun change from maple syrup. Here's the recipe as printed:
Spiced Waffles
1 c. flour 1/8 tsp. nutmeg
4 tsp. baking powder 1/8 tsp. allspice
1 tsp. salt 1 1/2 c. milk
2 Tbsp. sugar 1/4 c. melted butter
1/8 tsp. cinnamon 2 eggs
Mix dry ingredients; add milk to beaten egg yolks. Mix with dry ingredients. Add melted butter and fold in stiffly beaten egg whites. Bake in preheated waffle iron until brown.
Honey Butter
1 c. honey 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
5 Tbsp. melted butter
Mix melted butter, cinnamon, and honey. Warm over low heat until warm. Serve over waffles.
