How to make waffles-by the waffle queen!

I love waffles! And I completely forgot that I have a waffle iron, kindly donated to me by Michael's mum. I also have a donut maker, toastie maker and cupcake maker but that is besides the point! It is so easy and quick to make waffles and I highly recommend purchasing one-they can be picked up for around £20 online and can be used for years and years! I love waffles as a sweet snack, breakfast or they can be made savory depending on what you put with it. I normally chose Nutella because, let's face it, it's the best. If I could smother everything in Nutella (easy now!) then I would!

All you need for a waffle mix are eggs, flour, milk, vegetable oil, salt, caster sugar, baking powder and anything else you want to add like strawberries. Sounds a lot but to be honest, most of this was left over in my cupboard already.

I followed this recipe I found online: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/1908/mum-s-best-waffles.aspx

Using the correct amounts, I mixed the flour, caster sugar, baking powder and salt together and then added in 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons of oil and 400ml of milk. It was as simple as that!

While I was mixing, I also let the waffle iron heat up and when it was ready, the light flashed and before pouring the mixture in, I smothered the waffle maker in some butter just so the mixture wouldn't stick.

 Once the mixture was in, I shut the lid and left it for a couple of minutes until the ready light flashed. The mixture had stuck very slightly but all in all it was a success-be careful not to burn yourself whilst lifting out the waffles (this is where I called Michael for help lol) as it's very hot at this point.

I then decorated the cute heart shaped waffles with some strawberries, smothered on some nutella and ate it all very quickly and felt sick. Simples!
