- For the best results, use fresh sour cream and buttermilk.
- Be sure to separate the eggs and beat the egg whites until stiff before folding them in.
- Instead of cake flour, use whole wheat flour. This substitution will add more fiber and nutrients to the waffles, making them a healthier option.
- Instead of buttermilk, use almond milk. This substitution will make the waffles dairy-free, making them suitable for those with dairy allergies.
Chocolate Chip Waffles Add 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips to the batter before baking.
Strawberry Compote - A light and sweet compote made with fresh strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice, this is the perfect accompaniment to the rich and savory William Demerest Sour Cream Waffles. The tartness of the compote will provide a nice contrast to the waffles and help to balance out the flavors.
Maple Bacon: This classic combination of sweet and salty flavors is the perfect complement to the William Demerest Sour Cream Waffles. The smoky, salty bacon will provide a nice contrast to the sweetness of the compote, while the maple syrup will bring out the richness of the waffles.
FAQ
Q: How do I beat the egg whites?
A: Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl until they form stiff peaks. When you lift the beaters, the whites should hold their shape. Then, fold them into the batter gently.
Q: How do I prevent my cake from sinking?
A: Make sure to use room temperature ingredients, mix the batter just until combined, and bake the cake at the recommended temperature. Additionally, you can use a cake strip around the pan to ensure even baking.
