Among its treasured contents is this delightful Raspberry Sour Cream Waffles recipe. These waffles have become a staple in my kitchen, and once you try them, you’ll understand why!
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 cups frozen raspberries
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cups pancake mix
Instructions
-
Prepare the Raspberry Topping: Start by gently folding the fresh raspberries into the whipped topping. Place this mixture in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the waffle batter. This step ensures the raspberries stay fresh and flavorful when added to the waffles.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, egg, and vegetable oil. It’s important to get a smooth and creamy consistency, so take your time to ensure these ingredients are well combined.
-
Incorporate the Dry Ingredients: Gradually sift the pancake mix into the wet mixture, whisking continuously to integrate the dry ingredients smoothly. The batter should be very smooth and slightly runny—this will give your waffles their wonderful, light texture.
-
Cook the Waffles: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Pour the batter into the hot waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy on the outside while remaining light and fluffy on the inside. Note that these waffles will have a delicate, tender texture rather than the typical crispness.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once cooked, remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately. Top with the chilled raspberry mixture. These waffles are so delicious that they might become your new breakfast favorite!
Tips for Success
-
Try Different Toppings: If you’re out of sour cream, don’t worry! I’ve found that a cup of lemon yogurt works wonderfully as a substitute, adding a light lemony fragrance and flavor to the waffles.
-
Make Ahead: You can prepare the batter ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for a day or two. Just give it a good stir before using.
-
Serve with Fresh Fruit: For a delightful breakfast experience, serve these waffles with additional fresh raspberries or other berries of your choice.
This recipe yields approximately 5 to 6 small round waffles, perfect for a cozy family breakfast or brunch with friends. With its luscious texture and delectable flavor, this Raspberry Sour Cream Waffle recipe is sure to become a cherished part of your morning routine.
