Classic Waffle Recipe

CLASSIC WAFFLES
11/2 cups all-purpose flour
ener-G for 3 eggs
1 /2 cup cornstarch
2 tbsp. granulated sugar
2 tbsp. cornmeal (optional)
1 3/4 cups milk
1 tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine, melted
In large bowl, sift or whisk together flour, cornstarch, cornmeal, baking powder
and salt to blend thoroughly; set aside. In mixer bowl, beat egg whites until soft
peaks form. Add sugar; continue beating just until stiff peaks form; set aside.
Whisk together egg yolks, milk and vanilla. Using rubber spatula, stir milk mixture
into flour mixture, blending just until dry ingredients are moistened. (There should
still be small lumps; do not over mix). Stir in melted butter. Fold in beaten egg
whites until combined. Pour batter onto hot, greased waffle maker and bake.
Makes about 5 1/2 cups batter

Waffle Tip: Cornstarch makes the waffles crisper. If you don’t have cornstarch,
you could still make great waffles by omitting cornstarch and increasing flour to
2 cups. Bake as directed.

I got a slew of brussel sprouts and decided to pair them with some Ray's Seitan for sandwiches.

Grilled the seitan:



Steamed the brussel sprouts in a Pyrex bowl in the microwave for 4 minutes, then sauteed in olive oil for 3 minutes until browned:



Roasted sunflower seed bread and cheezy sauce completed the sandwich:

Vegan Waffles

I've been making Belgian waffles with my new waffle-maker. I think I perfected the recipe, they're pretty delicious.

In the waffle iron:



Since I can only make one at a time in my waffle maker, I put them on the racks of my oven, set to 200 degrees to keep them warm and crisp until dinner:



Earth Balance and Maple Syrup, yum!

Sponge Candy

When I ordered the Vege Dog from Vegan Essentials, I also got some "Golden Crunch Sponge Candy." I had never heard of it before, but it was chocolate so I figured it must be delicious...

From the outside, it looked like a chocolaet square:

Inside was a crunchy sweet toffee-like filling:

I was right, it was great! I definitely recommend it!!

Toaster Struedel

I'm experimenting with how to make Vegan Toaster Struedel:

Mr. Nick

Mr. Nick is so funny, this is what he does all day, he sits in this same spot and only really gets up if someone drops some food.




He is cute though!
