Hia Cranberry!

This is the recipe I use for waffles:

2 eggs
100g butter
2 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons flour
rind of hal a lemon (optional)
pinch of salt

Seperate the eggs and whisk the whites until fluffy and stiff. In another bowl combine all the other ingredients, including the egg yolks, and mix until smooth (it makes a fairly firm paste and milk can be added if required). Carefully fold in the egg whites and bake in a very hot waffle iron for about 4 minutes.

The waffles may be frozen when cool and re-heated in a toaster.


If you don't have a waffle iron or machine, you can make something similar on a griddle or non-stick frying pan:

I call this "Margi's fluffy pancakes" coz I got it from Margi!

3 large eggs
4oz plain flour
1 heaped teaspoon baking powder
5floz milk
pinch salt
if you want sweeter pancakes add 1 rounded dessert spoon of sugar

Separate the eggs, putting the whites into one large bowl and the yolks into another. Add the flour, baking powder and milk (and suger if using) to the yolks and mix to a smooth thick batter. Whisk the whites with the salt until they form stiff peaks. Put the yolk batter into the whites and fold together gently.

Cook as preferred - in a frying pan or griddle, spooning the mixture into the size you want, and turning them over to cook the other side. Serve with maple syrup, chocolate spread, lemon and sugar - whatever you fancy!
