RECIPE
------
POOLISH
▪200g or 3/4c water, room temp
▪Instant yeast (small pinch)
▪200g or 1 1/4c AP flour (11.7% protein)

To make your poolish, measure water, yeast, and flour into a high sided container. Stir to combine. Allow to sit, covered, at room temp for 12-24 hours.

------
WAFFLE BATTER:
▪165g or 3/4c butter
▪240g or 1c milk, cold
▪240g or 1c buttermilk
▪400g of poolish (all poolish from the recipe above)
▪5g or 1tsp vanilla
▪1 large egg
▪275g or 2 1/4c AP flour
▪10g or 1 3/4tsp salt
▪35g or 1/3c sugar
▪3g or 3/4tsp baking soda


Preheat small saucepan over high heat and add butter. Butter should foam and eventually milk solids should form at the bottom and become brown. At this point, add cold milk and stir to combine. Add buttermilk and stir.

Add poolish (everything you made 12-24hrs earlier) into a bowl followed by vanilla, egg, and brown butter milk mix. Whisk to combine. Add flour, salt, sugar, and baking soda. Whisk to combine, trying to get batter as smooth as possible...there will likely still be some small lumps.


Spray waffle maker with pan spray, add recommended amount of batter to your waffle maker (i’m using about 3/4c), invert waffle maker and cook. My waffle maker cooks for about 5min. Times may vary depending on your waffle maker

Top waffle with butter and maple syrup.

------
BERRY COMPOTE WITH CHEESECAKE WHIPPED CREAM WAFFLE
Use waffle recipe and process above.

BERRY COMPOTE
▪350g or 1bag of frozen mixed berries
▪Splash of water
▪25g or 1 heaping Tbsp maple syrup
▪25g or 1 3/4Tbsp lemon juice


Preheat med nonstick pan over high heat and add mixed berries and a splash of water. Once berries have begun to break down a bit, add maple syrup and lemon juice. Stir to combine, return to simmer and continue to cook for 6-8min until thickened.

Remove from heat and cool in fridge.

------
CHEESECAKE WHIPPED CREAM
▪225g or 8oz cream cheese
▪150g or 3/4c heavy cream
▪Pinch of salt
▪20g or 2 1/2Tbsp powdered sugar

Using mixer, whip cream cheese, heavy cream, and salt until well combined and thickened. Add powdered sugar and whip until sugar is dissolved (about 15 more sec).

Top your waffle with the cheesecake whipped cream, drizzle with berry compote, and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

------
CHEESY CHIVE CRISP HAM WAFFLE (with fried egg)
Use batter recipe from above, only OMIT THE VANILLA. To that batter add..
▪225g or 1 1/2c sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
▪225g or 1 1/2c pepperjack cheese, shredded
▪25g or 1/4c minced chives
▪2 pieces of torn up, thick cut ham (per waffle)
▪2 eggs (per waffle)

Fold cheeses and chives into non-vanilla batter to combine.

To make waffles, spray waffle maker with pan spray, add torn up pieces of thick cut ham directly to waffle maker, followed by a scoop of waffle mix, and top with another piece of torn ham. Cook until done. Top with 2 fried eggs. Enjoy.
