Strawberry Honey Waffle for 1

How to make a refreshing strawberry waffle for 1.

It’s Waffle of the Month time!

Last month’s waffle of the month was Mint Chocolate Chip Waffle Sandwich. This month, I wanted to go with something light and refreshing using my favorite fruit – strawberries!

The hand towel is my Volume One Hand Towel, and I have a free crochet pattern on my sister blog, EyeLoveKnots, if you’re interested.

I experimented with this recipe a bit.

First I tried 1/4 cup of strawberries, 6 tablespoons of milk and 1/2 cup of waffle mix (with all the other ingredients mentioned as is). This quantity of milk and waffle mix is what I normally use when I make my waffles, but the strawberries add more moisture so the finished waffle wasn’t as crisp. Also, the strawberry flavor was subtle, and I wanted to really taste them. AND, it made more mix than I needed.

I modified that recipe in attempt to add more strawberry flavor, and take away some of the moisture and quantity of mixture. This modification included using 1/2 cup of strawberries, 5 tablespoons of milk and 1/3 cup of waffle mix (with all the other ingredients mentioned as is. This one was a winner! The strawberry flavor was just what I wanted, the waffle came out crisper though a little darker in color, and it made less mixture though still a bit more than I needed, but I’m happy with this light, delicious waffle!

If you like a little something extra in your waffle, you can mix in 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips, and/or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Makes:

1 Waffle

Time Required:

15 Minutes

• Mix Waffle Ingredients (5 Minutes)
• Rest Waffle Mix (5 Minutes)
• Cook Waffle (3 Minutes)

Waffle Ingredients – Makes 1:

• 1/3 – 1/2 Cup of Waffle Mix – I like Aunt Jemima
• 1/2 Tbsp Butter or Oil – I use Country Crock’s Plant Butter
• 5 Tbsp of Milk – I use lactose free 2%
• 1 Egg
• 1/4 – 1/2 Cup of Strawberries – that’s 4 – 6
• 2 Tsp of Honey – I use Clover Honey

You’ll Also Need:

• Mixing Bowl
• Spoon/Spatula for Mixing Ingredients
• Measuring Cup and Spoons
• Blender
• Pam, or Butter and Flour for Cooking
• Waffle Maker

Ingredient Notes:

• WAFFLE MIX: I sometimes use Hungry Jack, but I think Aunt Jemima makes a fluffier waffle.
• EGG: If you make more than 1 waffle, use 1 egg per 2 waffles.
• SUGGESTED ADD-INS: 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips and/or 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
• BLENDER: I wanted the strawberry flavor infused rather than sliced and mixed in so I blended them. You can also mash them instead.

Recipe:

Step 1: Add the waffle mix to a mixing bowl, and set aside.

Step 2: Blend the wet ingredients together – that’s the strawberries, honey, egg, butter and milk. If you choose to add in vanilla extract, do so now.

Step 3: Pour the wet mixture into the mixing bowl with the waffle mix, and stir until combined until it’s no longer lumpy.

Step 4: If you choose to add in chocolate chips, mix in now.

Step 5: Let batter rest for about 5 minutes.

Step 6: Plug in waffle maker, spray with Pam, and when ready, cook waffle for about 3 minutes.
