Do you not have a waffle maker? No problem! Waffles can also be made from scratch using a grill pan, which you probably already own.
Here is how you can make waffles without a waffle maker
Ingredients
• Milk – 1+1/2 cup
• Lemon Juice – 2 tbsp
• Melted Butter – ¼ cup + 2 tbsp
• Vanilla – 1 tsp
• All Purpose Flour/Maida – 2 cups
• Baking Powder – 4 tsp
• Cinnamon Powder – 1 tsp
• Sugar – ¼ cup
• Hot Water – ⅓ cup
Instructions
1. Mix the milk and lemon juice. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes to form buttermilk.
2. When the mixture has curdled, add butter and vanilla. Mix well and keep it aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Add the sugar and blend well.
4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients.
5. Once they have mixed to form a thick mixture, ensure to add hot water and mix well.
6. Over medium heat, place your grill pan on the burner until it becomes toasty. If the water dances when you drop it on the pan, the heat is good enough to roll. Make the grill pan nice and cozy by brushing it with butter. You should see it melt immediately and even sizzle a little.
7. Spread the waffle batter onto the pan and let it spread into a circle. You can add the batter in large dollops or small ones, depending on your preference. Your circles might look a little off because of the ridges within the pan, but don’t worry about it.
8. Let the batter cook until bubbles start to emerge on top, the sides look dry and the bottom is set.
9. Flip your waffle using a spatula. Try flipping it so that the lines face in the same direction they did before you lifted it off the pan. Do not worry if you cannot manage the technique. Neither the flavor nor the texture will be affected.
10. Make sure your waffle sticks to the ridges in the pan by pressing lightly with your spatula. After this side is done, transfer the waffle to a wire rack to cool.
Serve with maple or chocolate syrup or simply pour honey and enjoy!
