It's a little known fact that traditional waffles can be made with up to 2:1 ratio of wheat flour to any adulterant. Typically these are added for taste or other benefits and the sweet chestnut flour used here makes a very tasty addition to any breakfast waffle.
Ingredients:
160g self-raising flour
50g
sweet chestnut flour (buy ready make or make your own from ground, dried, sweet chestnuts)
2 tsp baking powder
2 tbsp sugar
2 eggs, separated
2 tbsp sour cream
4 tbsp melted butter
360ml milk
Method:
Separate the eggs. Whisk the yolks until pale and creamy then, in a separate bowl, whisk the whites until stiff and glossy.
Add the milk and sour cream to the egg yolks and whisk to combine, then sift together the dry ingredients into a bowl stir-in the egg yolk and milk mixture. Now stir-in the melted butter before gently folding-in the egg whites (do not over-mix).
Heat your waffle iron and grease lightly with a little oil or melted butter. Add the waffle mixture about 120ml at a time and cook until the steam stops escaping and the waffles are golden brown (about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes).
Serve hot with your choice of topping. This is a slightly savoury waffle and goes well with bacon, cheese and maple syrup.
