Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon cloves
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • whipped cream (for serving)
  • fruit topping (such as cranberry compote, for serving)

Instruction

  • Preheat the waffle iron. If you will not be serving the waffles immediately, preheat the oven to 175 degrees F and place an oven proof metal cooling rack in the center of the oven.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger and cloves. In a smaller bowl, whisk the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs and molasses. Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring until just combined; do not overmix, a few lumps are ok.
  • When the waffle iron is ready, pour the batter in the wafflemaker (about 1/2 cup per waffle, depending on the size of your waffle mold), and bake for 3 minutes. Transfer the waffles to the metal cooling rack (be sure not to stack waffles as this will make them soggy) until serving, or serve immediately. Enjoy with a fruit compote and whipped cream.
