Here is a simple recipe for delicious homemade waffles. It comes from Alton Brown, one of my favorite Food Network personalities. He turns food into a science, so you know you’ll get a perfect dish every time.

Recommended Serving Instructions:

These are great with some walnuts and maple syrup, but also with apple butter or fresh fruit.


Tips:

•The only thing I do differently is I use regular milk or almond milk in place of buttermilk. It’s healthier and still tastes buttery with the half-stick of butter you add anyway.
