Tips and variations for making these monster waffles:
● Want a waffle recipe but don’t want the spooky theme? Leave out the food coloring in the batter and syrup, and omit the candy.
● If you do not have buttermilk, add a tablespoon of white vinegar to a measuring cup. Add enough milk to reach the 1-cup mark. Leave undisturbed for 5 minutes and then stir and use.
● If you do not have buttermilk, a great thing to keep on hand is powdered buttermilk that you keep – in powdered form – in your fridge and make as needed. We have this on hand all the time. You can buy it online, at your local Amish store (which is where we purchase it), or at your local grocery store, which may carry it
● The cornstarch is added to thicken the syrup to make it more realistic. You can omit it if you want, and it will still have a similar effect.
● Wilton food coloring in Moss Green and No Taste Red was used in making these waffles.
● You can use any spooky food coloring combination you would like: green, purple, orange, or black.
● Wilton candy eyeballs in 2 sizes were used to decorate these waffles.
● Add sliced bananas, raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries as a side!
● In the United States, ½ cup butter = 1 stick, 1 cup = 2 sticks
● How to make vanilla extract
● Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat at a lower temperature in the toaster.
● You can freeze these waffles. Allow to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Take out each waffle as you need it and reheat from frozen in the toaster at medium heat.
● This recipe is made with simple ingredients commonly found in your local grocery store.
