Are you snowed in? We are! We’ve got a fire going, dad’s outside shoveling, I’ve been reading a book by the Christmas Tree and we’re planning on making these waffles that I featured on Tasty Kitchen last week. They are the perfect post-holiday breakfast when we’ve got all morning to cook and nowhere to be. As I said in my post on Tasty Kitchen, we are P.K.’s (preacher’s kids) so our Christmas morning is never normal and we never have a special breakfast (this year we had coffee cake). So here is our belated Christmas morning breakfast.
Makes 8 waffles
Here’s what you need to make them:
2 whole eggs (separated)
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoons salt
1/3 cups canola oil
For a step-by-step tutorial and more photographs of these delicious waffles, check out my post on the Tasty Kitchen blog.
Recipe by SweetPea Nancy on Tasty Kitchen:
Beat egg whites until stiff. In a separate large bowl, put remaining ingredients and beat on low with a hand mixer until moistened. Increase speed to medium and mix until smooth. By hand, gently fold in beaten egg whites. Pour 1/2 cup of batter onto hot waffle iron. Cook until lightly browned. Serve with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
Maggy, I saw this post on TK last week and bookmarked it on my phone so I could execute Operation Waffle over the holiday. After a stubborn first waffle fail, the rest of them cooked up beautifully.
We got snowed in too! We got about two inches of snow but in ATL that’s snowed in! Your waffles sound perfect for a lazy morning after Christmas. Sounds like your after-Christmas celebration is just beginning – Happy New Year, threemanycooks! Love love love your blog!!
that looks like a perfect breakfast during the blizzard! enjoy the snowday:-)
I wish I woke up to homemade waffles because the frozen ones I had weren’t that great. Wonderful recipe, Pam.

Is there anything better than a crisp waffle and a good, strong cup of coffee? Thanks for this recipe, Maggy. I’ve been wanting a waffle recipe with buttermilk, and here it is! Wish I were there with you, chatting over the waffles and coffee!
not only for breakfast or dessert…adding one of these crispy waffles to any entree makes things fun and interesting
Chicken and Waffles! That’s on my list! I agree with Georgia! It’s already Lunch time in CA! LOL!
I love the new look to the website – so clean and fresh. But I honestly miss the easy print ability. Can you bring that back?
OH YUM!! I missed the post on TK. These look absolutely heavenly though! I may make them this weekend for a treat. Thanks for sharing.
Wonderful; I can’t wait to try these! Also, I’m loving the new tweaks to your site! 🙂
my trouble is that buttermilk is something i never have in the house, so i rarely make stuff like this. but after all the cooking and baking i did for the holidays, i would have really enjoyed it if someone made me some waffles for breakfast. of course i don’t have a waffle maker either… so that’s a problem.
Hi, This looks so yummy! Should be perfect for a late brunch or dessert 😉
I would welcome these waffles as my breakfast any morning!
Gosh these waffles look amazing! I will poke around TK to find them. Perfect for New Years morning. XO
This is definatley a fluffy winter favourite, with an excellent choice of toppings in the pictures! Simply mouth watering.
I am so glad that you like my waffle recipe. I am just puzzled because in my original recipe that I posted there is only Baking Powder and NO Baking Soda yet in your recipe it calls for baking soda. Why?
Hey Nancy,
We like buttermilk in our waffles and so we used a little baking soda to neutralize some of its acidity.
Do you have a variation for whole wheat? I did a 1-to-1 switch from regular flour and the waffles turned out very dense. I’ve made it in the past with regular flour and loved it.
Awesome choice of toppings! Waffles + banana bread 🙂
I’m not a fan of canola oil. As a substitute, I do a mixture of butter and coconut oil. They came out great.
