Day 82: Leftover Yeast-Raised Waffles (and far too many cinnamon-phyllo nests with chocolate eggs)

Phyllo+nests

OK, so I didn’t actually make anything for dinner tonight. But I cranked out a helluva lot of waffles over the course of the day to fuel our Easter egg hunt (I think we unplugged the waffle iron at around 2:30) and munched on leftovers and peanut butter Easter eggs enough that we didn’t particularly want dinner. I think W ate the first third of about three apples, and Mike made a berry smoothie in an attempt to offset the effects of our poor grazing.

But the waffles weren’t really that unhealthy, made with whole wheat flour, an egg and canola oil. This is my favorite recipe, and one you should have if you own a waffle iron. (In fact, having this recipe easily justifies the purchase of a waffle iron.) It’s made with yeast, and stirred up the night before (the eggs are stirred in at the last minute) so it’s ready to go when you are. The resulting waffles are light and crispy, and make the house smell phenomenal on account of the yeast in the batter. I’m glad to have the opportunity to share it; being a dinner-themed blog, I sometimes wish I could report on our morning meals instead. More than once it has crossed my mind to launch Breakfast with Julie (or Breakfast at Julie’s? Like Tiffany’s?), but then I’d be documenting everything I ate every day and driving everyone crazy. Plus there are only so many ways to make a toasted bagel & peanut butter or a bowl of oatmeal interesting.

To top the waffles, I simmered some frozen wild blueberries in maple syrup until they popped, turning the syrup indigo. And sliced up strawberries to go in between the waffles and whipped cream, of course. If there’s bacon on the table, my Mom and I both like to wrap crispy slices in a wedge of soft waffle and eat it with our fingers.

Usually I dump some ground flaxseed in these too – for some reason it’s undetectable – but I thought better of it since there were so many toddlers present (in diapers or in training)…

    These are so good! I individually bagged all the extra waffles we couldn’t eat, froze them, and have been taking them to work each morning as homemade eggos. Yum!

    I want to try these waffles; but have you ever had a problem leaving the batter (with milk?) out all night?
