Our Favorite Waffles

This recipe came from the 1955 Good Housekeeping Cookbook, one of the most helpful gifts I received when we married. Leslie likes this because it's a one-bowl recipe. Many waffle recipes call for stiffly beaten egg whites. This is easier--and it's delicious. I've increased the proportions to accommodate my family's enthusiasm.





List of Ingredients



• 3 cups sifted flour
  
• 4 teaspoons baking powder
  
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  
• 1 teaspoon salt (or a little more)
  
• 3 cups buttermilk
  
• 6 eggs, well beaten
  
• 1 1/2 cups melted butter or oil
  






Instructions



1. Sift together the dry ingredients. Combine eggs and buttermilk. Add to flour mixture. With electric mixer at medium-high speed, beat until smooth. Stir in butter. Bake in preheated waffle iron.

In the rare instance where you have leftover batter, refrigerate and make pancakes the next morning.
