The BEST Homemade Waffles!

Trying to get myself a little more organized these days with my cooking and so as not to eat out - hopefully increasing the variety of foods I get to eat from home (avoiding donut shops, etc....), I made these Homemade Waffles on Friday to put in my freezer. They are FANTASTIC!

I've made homemade waffles in the past. Remember my Pumpkin Waffles? Other than the pumpkin waffles which are amazing, I haven't been super blown over by plain waffles after they've been frozen. Of course, if you drown them in syrup, it doesn't really matter, but I was looking for some really good waffles. I grew up eating Toaster Waffles (Leggo my Eggo!) These are just that good!! YUM!

I made a small batch (half of this recipe) but will be making the whole recipe next time. They are fantastic and I want to be filling up my freezer with these babies.

Of course, to me waffles should be crisp so I made mine in a waffle iron and then proceeded to toast them in my toaster. Perfection! They were just like I wanted.

Here's how I made the BEST Homemade Waffles (for your freezer & toaster or just to eat hot off the presses), AT HOME MY WAY:

The BEST Homemade Waffles

(Freezer & Toaster Friendly!)

3 cups all purpose flour
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 1/8 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
1 cup milk (I used 2%)
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup buttermilk (I used plain yogurt)
1/4 cup vegetable oil

Instructions:

Combine dry ingredients. In separate container, mix liquid ingredients and eggs until well blended. Combine all ingredients and stir just until blended.

Heat waffle iron and spray well with cooking spray.

They should cook about 3 minutes.

Let cool before bagging for the freezer. To reheat, just pop them in the toaster!

Makes approximately 12 single waffles (My waffle iron is just a cheapy from a Black Friday Sale at Walmart.)

Ready for the freezer!

Enjoy!

Best Dill Pickles EVER! (Just like Claussen) (Easy - no canning!)

Do you want to make the best, easiest homemade dill pickles in the world? I found a recipe for dill pickles that tastes JUST LIKE Claussen refrigerator pickles. Those are the best anyway, right? That crunch, the dill and the garlic... and oh yea , the crunch! This recipe is super easy because you don't have to process these pickles which means there is no canning needed. You just fill a gallon jar (we use an old pickle jar) with fresh cucumbers and dill heads, and then pour over the cooled liquids/seasonings. Let it sit on the counter for three days, and then refrigerate. After that, the pickle eating begins. They are supposed to keep for one year like that in the fridge, without canning. (We let them sit for the 3 days, then refrigerated them overnight before opening the jar for the much anticipated first taste. Did they taste like Claussen? YOU BET YOUR PRETTY PICKLE THEY DID! We were all SO ex...

Buttermilk Biscuits - Just like Cracker Barrel!

RECIPES AT THE TOP - CHIT CHAT AT THE BOTTOM! Here's how we make Buttermilk Biscuits AT HOME MY WAY: Buttermilk Biscuits (just like Cracker Barrel) (Makes about 8 biscuits.) PRINTABLE RECIPE HERE Ingredients: 2 cups SELF RISING flour (self rising flour gives the perfect taste to homemade biscuits) 1/3 cup shortening (cold real butter also works here) 1 1/4 cup buttermilk* *NOTE: (If using regular milk combined with lemon juice vinegar referenced below, you only need 1 cup of milk because thinner regular milk uses less by volume than the thick real buttermilk.) Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. (Make sure your flour is "fluffed" not straight from the bag; Dump it in a larger container and stir using up and down motion to fluff it up a little bit-THEN measure out 2 cups). Measure 2 cups SELF RISING flour into a mixing bowl. Add shortening and cut it until small and crumbly. A fork works fine for this purpose ...
