Savory Crab Waffles

June 17, 2013June 17, 2013 Hollie

I’ve been really digging savory waffles as of late. Although I like my chocolate, alcoholic and whatever else…savory has been what I’ve been feeling lately. Also what I’ve been feeling is cleaning out my hoarding collection whether it’s foodie items or clothes or random junk. Which is where I found 5 cans of crab meat.

So I bring you a very simple and awkwardly named savory crab waffle. That sounds awkward typing out though but I sat here for quite some time and couldn’t think of a better name.

Besides my smoked salmon waffle, this has honestly become my favorite savory waffle to date (and in top 5 favorite waffle recipes). I like it so much I’ve gone through all five containers of crab meat and will probably end up buying more…then complaining when I grow tired of it and once again have five containers of crab meat.

2/3 cup flour
1 cup water (I tried milk once and it tasted a bit odd to me, water actually tastes better in this case)
¼ feta or crumbly blue cheese
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
Spices I used: Old bay and garlic

Mix water and egg.
Add flour, spices and baking powder. Add extra water if needed. Add cheese and about ½ of the craned crab. (Save the rest of the canned crab for topping).

Mix and pour on waffle maker.

Once done…top with more crab.

The Light Beer Waffle

Light Beer Waffle

Light beer is not my thing, but finally, I have one more beer waffle recipe for you light beer lovers.

It’s just as easy as dark beer and Guinness pancakes…maybe easier then winocakes but no matter if you like light beer I suppose it deserves its own little recipe. I make things and say…it’s all for the blog. I only blog for my readers and only make weird combinations of pancakes…for the readers…

Light beer and dark beer is like asking people if they like vanilla or chocolate ice cream then when giving a recipe just saying oh sub either or…they should both be equal…I guess.

So that is that. Light Beer Waffles are simple and I’m just bringing your attention that beer waffles do exist.

Light Beer Waffle Ingredients:

2/3 cup flour (all-purpose flour, wheat flour)

1 egg

1tsp baking powder

6 ounces light beer (for some reason all I had at the time was bud light lime…so that’s that).

Light Beer Waffle Recipe:

Preheat a waffle maker (I like Belgian waffle maker) and use cooking spray.
Mix all dry ingredients together in a large bowl in a separate bowl.
Add wet ingredients (including light beer) together and mix in a separate mixing medium bowl.
Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
Pour waffle batter into preheated waffle iron and cook until golden brown.
After cooked, put on a plate and add a layer of melted butter, maple syrup, honey vanilla greek yogurt, whipped cream, and powdered sugar.

Question for you: Favorite light beer? Would you try a light beer waffle? What about a craft beer waffle?

I guess mine would be bud light lime, but I blame that on one of my housemates from college liking bud light.

Wineocakes

June 3, 2013May 31, 2013 Hollie

Okay don’t get your panties in a bunch. After last week’s Guinness Pancakes those who did not like Guinness (weird) asked if there were any alternatives. Did you ask that at college ragers too? Of course there are alternatives to beer. I’ll probably spend the next couple of weeks experimenting with my inner alchi. (YAY for being 21).

Why not make a winocake (winowaffle?).

To be quite honest, I enjoy wine but I don’t drink a lot of it. I still would rather have a bottle of beer but if someone is offering wine at a nice get together I usually won’t turn it down. That is why this week is for all you wine lovers a nice delectable wine pancake. I’m guessing you might want to make this for a brunch or a nice breakfast with the girls but you never know.

2/3 cup flour

¼ cup dark cocoa powder (I used hershey’s dark cocoa)

1 egg

1 cup red wine

1 tsp baking powder

¼ cup sweetener (I used stevia)

1 tsp vanilla extract

For the glaze:

1/4 cup red wine

1 tablespoon melted butter

1/4 cup sweetener (less if you like bitter…more if you don’t)

1 tsp vanilla extra

Mix and pour over

Here is the thing. The wine will not fully cook out. You won’t get tipsy but as always I don’t recommend using this as a 6am breakfast…unless you really want too. It would be great with the girls for a brunch and I fully plan on it…just next time I actually have friends over ha.

I tried to get the foodie design just perfect.

I almost forgot to tell you, that I had some friends over for a wino pancake breakfast party who quite enjoyed them. I really enjoyed these a lot more than I thought I would, although I like wine (still not as much as Guinness LOL).

Questions for you: Are you a wineo?

Guinness Pancakes

May 27, 2013May 23, 2013 Hollie

It’s no secret that my favorite beer is Guinness. I’ve never denied it on my blog. Since my favorite beers is Guinness, it would only make sense that one of my favorite desserts is well…Guinness flavored anything. Lately, I’ve seemed to be able to enjoy this a lot more since many of the foodie places I’ve gone have had this option…

No I did not have this for breakfast before work because well…that might be enough to lose my job. They are a nice treat for dinner if you are feeling it, but then again I’m always feeling a casual beer at dinner so why wouldn’t I feel a casual bunch of Guinness Pancakes?

2/3 cup flour

¼ cup cocoa powder (I used gheridelli cocoa powder but I know Hershey’s dark cocoa would be good here too)

1 egg

1 tsp baking powder

2/3 cup Guinness

1 tsp vanilla extract

*Personally I used NO sweetener here because I like the raw flavoring of Guinness. If that isn’t your thing than maybe these pancakes aren’t your thing but you can always use a different brew or add sweetener.

My verdict?

Well duh these are my new favorite. They are extremely dark and almost fudge like. I bet they would be just as good in waffle form so that’s what I’ll probably do…tonight.

Questions for you:

Favorite alcoholic (or nonalcoholic) drink?

Mine is almond milk with a splash of seltzer water and 2/3 tsp chia seeds…whatever that means. Just kidding my drinks diet is typically water, coffee, milk and Guinness.

S’mores Pancakes

May 13, 2013April 25, 2013 Hollie

It hit me the other day and I thought about why on Earth I hadn’t made these before. As a child, one of my favorite desserts was a SMORE. Nothing beat roasting the marshmellows (well I tended to catch mine on fire) and squishing it between the chocolate and graham crackers. Not that I don’t mind going out in -30 degree weather in upstate NY, but as a child it seemed like more fun in the summer. This recipe is generally pretty easily and if you are like me (and starving the moment you come home) a quick chocolate waffle recipe always catches my eye.

Smores pancakes:
Basic Pancake recipe:
2/3 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ -1 cup milk
1 egg
¼ cup sweetener

Smores ingredients:
½ cup Chocolate (I actually used gheradelli chocolate chips)
2 Crumbled Grapham crackers
½ cup Marshmellows (I used mini ones because they were easier in the recipe)

Mix the basic pancake recipe together and then add the smores ingredients. Cook.

Such an easy and quick fulfillment in life, it makes me wonder why I didn’t think of this earlier!

I folded it so it be like a sandwich...you know...for fun... — I folded it the second time (could be the third or fourth time I made it actually) so it be like a sandwich…you know…for fun…

Questions for you:
Do you like smores?
I did as a child and I do now. Tim and I actually have spent a few nights drinking Guinness and making smores in the upstate weather.
Were you ever a girl scout or boy scout? (smores also remind me of my days doing that).
