How I Make Perfect Copycat Waffle House Waffles

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil adds a subtle flavor while reducing saturated fat.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk lowers calories while maintaining moisture.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey adds natural sweetness with a unique flavor.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: cake flour

Whole wheat flour increases fiber content.

Measure 1.5 cups of flour and place the measuring cup in a bowl to catch any excess flour.

Add 1/4 cup cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 0.5 teaspoon baking powder to the flour and stir together.

In a separate bowl, combine 1 egg, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, 4 teaspoons (half a stick) of butter, and 3/4 teaspoon vanilla, then whisk together.

Add 3/4 cup milk and 1 cup half and half to the wet mixture and whisk until combined.

Set the electric mixer to the lowest speed and slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture, being careful not to overbeat the batter.

Preheat the waffle iron and spray it with cooking spray.

Add half a cup of batter to the preheated waffle iron, spreading it out evenly.

Cook the first batch of waffles until done, using two forks to lift them out.

Repeat the process for the second and third batches, being careful not to burn yourself.
