What you need:

  • 2 cups of unbleached flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 ¾ cup low fat buttermilk
  • ¼ cup canola oil

How to Do it:

Mix the dry ingredients well.  Form a well in the middle and add the wet ingredients (milk, eggs, oil) and mix well.  You will have a thick batter.

Close the lid and cook until both sides are brown and crisp.  Remove from iron to a hot plate lined with a paper towel (paper towels will absorb condensation keeping the waffles from getting soggy).
