Here is the Belgian Waffle Recipe that we used this last time and it worked really good:
Ingredients:
2 Cups Flour
4 Teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 eggs, separated
1/2 cup oil
2 cups milk
Directions:
1. Sift the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.
2. Separate the eggs.
3. In small bowl, beat egg whites until stiff (use electric mixer)
4. Mix together the egg yolks, milk and oil and stir slightly
5. Add to dry ingredients and mix well
6. Fold in beaten egg whites.
Step 6 is really the most important step because you can mix the other ingredients pretty much how you want without screwing things up. But you have to make sure that you very carefully "fold" in the egg whites as it will greatly effect the quality/crispness of the waffle. Do not "over fold" as it will loose its fluffiness.
Make sure that your Belgian waffle maker is turned on its highest setting. You want the outsides to be crispy. Also make sure you grease it with a lot of butter or cooking spray. Pour in about 3/4 a cup into the waffle maker and close the machine and rotate it immediately. It will let yo know when its done.
I just found this coconut syrup recipe here that looks pretty easy: http://allrecipes.com/recipe/coconut-pancake-syrup/
I give this recipe 4/5 stars. Hoping to find that 5 star batter soon.
It only takes about 10 minutes to prepare and about 1-2 minutes per Waffle
Hi there - I grew up going to the Mauna Kea and absolutely LOVE the waffles there, so searching google for 'Mauna Kea waffle recipe' is of course how I found your blog!
ReplyDeleteWe finally got a chance to try your recipe - the crispness on the outside was wonderful and I think you are very close. This recipe is definitely a keeper for us.
I have one question though: Our batter ended up being very runny even though egg whites were folded in gently. Is this typical for you? Thanks! Taryn
Hi There. Since I wrote this post, I was actually able to get the real recipe for the original Mauna Kea Waffles. Here it is:
ReplyDelete2 Cups Water
3 Whole Eggs
1 Stick Butter
2 Cups Golden Malted Waffle Flour
Directions:
Pour 2 cups water into a large bowl. IN a separate bowl mix eggs well. Add eggs and 2 cups Golden Malted Waffle Flour mix to water and mix well. Add butter and blend well.
So it will be super runny comparatively speaking. But that is what makes them crispy on the outside and soft fluffy on the inside. Kind of like churros! You will need to find the batter mix online. I bought mine on Amazon. Here is a link to a pack of cans for sale on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Golden-Malted-Pancake-Original-16-Ounce/dp/B001FA1L8O/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1369630082&sr=8-4&keywords=carbons+golden+malted+waffle+mix
You have to make sure you flip the waffle maker fast so the batter doesn't run out. I cook them about a minute longer than the darkest setting to make sure they are really crispy. Do not follow the recipe on the can of the mix, it isn't the same.
Good luck
Wow, you have no idea how excited this makes me. Thank you so much for posting the recipe and for the extra advice. I will surely be trying these!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I'm so excited to try these! I got the recipe about 10 years ago but managed to misplace it so this is awesome. Thanks for posting!!!!
