Lemon Poppy Chia Belgian Waffles Recipes

Steps:

• The night before, combine the water, yeast and sugar in a very large bowl (the batter will expand enormously). Allow it to stand for about 5 minutes, until the yeast dissolves and the mixture has started to foam, which tells you the yeast is active. Stir in the milk, butter, honey, vanilla and salt. Add the flour and whisk until the batter is smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow it to sit overnight at a cool room temperature.
• The next morning, heat a Belgian waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and brush the top and bottom with melted butter. Beat the eggs together with the baking soda and whisk them into the batter until combined. Pour just enough of the batter onto the hot waffle iron to cover the grids (? to 1/2 cup each, depending on your waffle maker), close and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on medium heat, until the waffles are golden brown.
• Cut them apart with a small knife, if necessary, and remove them with a fork. Repeat the process until all of the batter has been used. Serve the waffles hot with sliced bananas, toasted coconut, maple syrup and creme fraiche and let everyone help themselves.
• Make-Ahead Plan
• Prepare the batter the night before. Cook the waffles up to 1 hour ahead and let sit on sheet pans at room temperature. Reheat for 10 minutes in a 350 degrees F oven, turning once.

Steps:

• In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, poppy seed and 1 tablespoon lemon peel. In small bowl, mix club soda, egg and butter with whisk; gently stir into Bisquick mixture with fork or whisk (mixture will be lumpy). Let stand 3 minutes.
• Heat Belgian waffle maker; brush with vegetable oil. For each waffle, pour 3/4 to 1 cup batter onto center of hot waffle maker. Close lid; bake about 5 minutes or until steaming stops and waffles are golden brown.
• Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix syrup, blueberries, 1 teaspoon lemon peel and the lemon juice. Serve waffles with blueberry-maple syrup and crème fraîche.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, prepare your favorite waffle mix according to package directions.
• Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's guidelines. Lightly spray the waffle iron with nonstick spray. Using a 4-ounce ladle or 1/2 cup measure, ladle batter for waffle into the iron, spreading evenly. Close the waffle iron and cook for 2 minutes or until waffles are golden and the steaming stops. Repeat with remaining batter. Serve with Whipped Cream and Blueberry Syrup.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, blueberries, sugar and lemon. Stir gently until the berries break down and release their natural juice. The consistency should remain a bit chunky. Serve hot over waffles.
• Using a hand-held electric beater on high speed, beat the cream in a chilled stainless steel bowl until it begins to thicken.
• Add sugar and vanilla. Continue to beat until the cream forms stiff peaks. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and buttermilk. Whisk the eggs and buttermilk into the dry mixture. Add the melted butter last. Preheat nonstick waffle maker. Take a 1-ounce ladle full of the mix and place it in the center of the waffle maker. Follow the instructions that come with your particular waffle maker.

Steps:

• Heat waffle maker. Grease with vegetable oil or shortening.
• In medium bowl, stir pancake mix, sugar, poppy seed, water, lemon peel and lemon juice with fork or wire whisk until smooth.
• Pour batter onto center of waffle maker. Bake about 5 minutes or until steaming stops.
• Serve waffles topped with yogurt and fruit.

Steps:

• For blueberry sauce:
• Bring blueberries, 1/2 cup apple juice and sugar to boil in heavy medium saucepan. Simmer over medium heat until reduced to 2 cups, about 15 minutes. Dissolve 1 tablespoon cornstarch in remaining 2 tablespoons apple juice and add to blueberry mixture. Add lemon juice. Bring to boil, stirring constantly; simmer until thick, about 1 minute. Cool slightly. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium-low heat before serving.)
• For lemon-poppy seed waffles:
• Whisk first 6 ingredients in large bowl to blend. Whisk eggs, buttermilk, melted butter and lemon peel in small bowl to blend. Add buttermilk mixture all at once to flour mixture and whisk until just blended. Let mixture stand 15 minutes.
• Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Spoon batter onto waffle iron. Cover and cook until golden and cooked through, about 7 minutes (cooking time will vary, depending on waffle iron). Repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with warm blueberry sauce.
