Crispy Nordic Waffles

Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time5 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup cake flour
  • pinch of sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 ¼ cups heavy cream

Instructions

  • If you are using a traditional cast-iron waffle maker, begin preheating the iron. Lightly butter the iron if necessary.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the water, all-purpose flour, cake flour, sugar, and salt. Mix until just combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  • Fold the heavy cream into the flour mixture. Take care not to over-mix the batter, but ensure that the cream has been completely incorporated into the flour mixture.
  • Add ½-¾ cup of batter to the preheated waffle iron. Cook for 3-4 minutes, flipping the iron after 1-2 minutes.

Notes

  • These waffles pair well with whipped cream or Chantilly cream, as well as fresh berries or jam.
