Waffles

Husband and I changed a lot of roommates during college and one of them left us a waffle maker. It is one of those super cheap versions and sat in storage for three years as I thought it is the most useless thing ever. A few months ago I dug it out and what do you know - it turns out that waffles make a great lazy Saturday brunch. The recipe is my own combination of a few different recipes, as I wanted waffles that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Ingredients:

1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/6 cup butter, melted
3/4 cup milk

Directions:

In a mixing bowl sift together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
In a separate bowl beat egg with milk and egg.
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingedients and mix.
The resulting batter would be very thick, but still pourable.
Follow the directions of your waffle maker for preparing the waffles.
