Sour Cream Waffles

When we lived in Sooke, BC in the middle of no where, I remember that my parents got a waffle iron for our family Christmas gift. Now, Christy and I come from a family of 7, and this was an iron that made 2 at a time. You see where this is going...yes, as children, we spent a lot of time waiting around the table for our breakfasts while our little brother hogged a spot in the line up until the very end!

Our favorite waffles, or the ones we made the most were sour cream waffles. I remember how gross we thought that sounded, but the result is mmm gooood! I now make them every now and then for our kids, with the waffle maker we got from the Kohl's as a wedding gift.

2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup butter
1 cup buttermilk*
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda


*if you don't have buttermilk, add a Tbs of lemon juice or vingear at a regular cup of milk

1. Mix the wet. Mix the dry. Mix them together
2. Add about 1/4 cup of batter to each waffle square. Don't over fill it, it should be a blog in the center.
3. Ideas for toppings: maple syrup (again only the good stuff), cut up fruit, whip cream, powdered sugar, jam, yogurt, nutella.

Any other topping ideas?
