We're having Waffles tonight!

Warning: You WILL get sick if you eat too much of them. Also, you’re GOING to be eating too much of them!
That happened to my mom. Unfortunately didn’t happen to me. After a busy day and just coming back from the groceries I hurriedly started making dinner for the family and decided on something new. I had to try some new waffles. I hurriedly made the batter, and started cooking some up while I made the second batter and in the meanwhile handed out the waffles that were ready and then started all over again to make more. Didn’t have a lot left to eat for myself and didn’t have a lot of time to make pictures, but I think it was a success. Sorry mom!



Spinach waffles
Ingredients:
125 grams butter
100 grams spinach a la crème (freezer-type)
3 eggs
250 grams flour
A pinch of baking powder
Salt & pepper
A pinch or two nutmeg

1. Cream the butter by whisking it with an electric mixer for about 30 seconds. Beat the eggs lightly and add them to the butter and mix again. Lastly add the spinach and mix again.
2. Sift the flour with baking powder and add about one fourth into the spinach-mixture and stir. Then stir in about one fourth of the water. Alternatively add the flour and water until you have none left.
3. Heat your waffle iron and drop a few spoons of batter on it after greasing it with some oil. Wait for it to get done and eat!

If you want you can always top these with some vegetables and pop them in the oven for a bit just like I did with my Pizza Waffles! Or if you like it a bit sweet, try this recipe:



Lemon waffles
Ingredients:
100 grams butter
100 grams powdered sugar
3 eggs
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
100 ml lemon juice
50 ml orange juice
125 grams flour
50 grams powdered almonds

1. Cream the butter by whisking it with an electric mixer for about 30 seconds. Add the powdered sugar and mix again.
2. Add the eggs, one by one, and mix well between each addition.
3. Add the lemon zest, juice and orange juice and sift the flour and almonds on top and stir everything in.
4. Heat your waffle iron and drop a few spoons of batter on it after greasing it with some oil. Wait a few minutes till it’s done and enjoy!

This last recipe was actually for oranges, but I wanted something with lemon so it would fit my cherry filling better. You could try it with oranges and add a bit cinnamon and serve glühwein with it if you want a winter effect. Add more lemon, cream and powdered sugar and you'll feel a lot more like summer!
Please enjoy!
