how to make blueberry lemon waffles

• STEP ONE: Preheat your oven to 350°F if using the waffle molds or heat the waffle iron.

• STEP TWO: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

• STEP THREE: In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: milk, melted butter, egg, and lemon juice..

• STEP FOUR: Combine the wet ingredients with the dry ingredients and mix until you have a smooth batter. Fold in the blueberries gently.

• STEP FIVE: Silicone waffle molds are ready to go, no need to grease. Start spooning into molds until full. If using a waffle iron grease your waffle maker with cooking spray, vegetable oil, or coconut oil. Pour the batter into the waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.

1. Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the waffles are cooked.
2. Serve the waffles warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, blueberry sauce, or your favorite toppings.

How to Store Waffles

If you have any leftover Blueberry Lemon Oven Baked Waffles, you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To prevent them from sticking together, place a sheet of parchment paper between each waffle. When you are ready to eat them, simply reheat them in a toaster or toaster oven until they are warm and crispy.

If you want to store them for a longer period, you can freeze them for up to 3 months.

How to Freeze

Freezing Blueberry Lemon Oven Baked Waffles is a great way to have a quick and easy breakfast on hand for busy mornings. Here’s how to freeze them properly:

1. Let the waffles cool down to room temperature.
2. Once cooled, place the waffles on a baking sheet and freeze them for about 1 hour.
3. Once frozen, transfer the waffles to a freezer-safe bag or airtight container.
4. Label the container with the date and contents.
5. When you are ready to eat them, simply reheat them in a toaster oven or microwave until they are warm and crispy.

Substitutions

One of the best things about Blueberry Lemon Oven Baked Waffles is that they are very versatile, and you can make substitutions to suit your dietary needs and preferences. Here are some substitutions you can make:

• All-purpose flour can be substituted with oat flour, almond flour, or potato starch for gluten-free waffles.
• Milk can be substituted with almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk for vegan waffle recipes.
• Butter can be substituted with coconut oil or canola oil for vegan and vegetarian diets.
• For vegan waffle recipes, you can substitute the egg with a flax egg or a mashed banana.
• Blueberries can be substituted with other fresh berries such as strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries.
• If you don’t have all the ingredients on hand, you can use a waffle mix or pancake mix and add fresh blueberries and lemon juice and zest to it.
• Instead of serving the waffles with maple syrup, you can make a quick blueberry sauce by heating up extra blueberries with a drizzle of lemon juice and maple syrup.

faqs

How do you make waffles that aren’t soggy? To make waffles that aren’t soggy, ensure that the waffles are cooked until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside. This can be achieved by using a waffle maker with a high heat setting and not overcrowding the waffle iron.

Should you let waffle batter rest? Yes, letting waffle batter rest for about 5 minutes allows the gluten to relax, resulting in lighter and fluffier waffles. It also allows the flavors to meld together for a more delicious waffle.

Why won’t my waffles get crispy? There are a few reasons why waffles may not get crispy, such as using too much oil in the batter, not preheating the waffle iron, and not cooking the waffles for long enough. To get crispy waffles, ensure that the waffle iron is preheated, the batter is not too oily, and cook the waffles until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
