There is a simple but effective recipe for one of the kitchen’s most
wonderful products.
1¾ cups flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
Yolks of 2 eggs
Whites of 2 eggs
1 tablespoon melted butter
Mix and sift dry ingredients; gradually add milk, then yolks of eggs,
well beaten. Next the melted butter and last the whites of eggs, beaten
stiff. Cook on a very hot and well-greased waffle iron and serve with
maple syrup.
EDITOR’S NOTE:—President Harding favors creamed chipped beef
as a dressing for waffles while Mr. Briggs is a staunch
supporter of the sweet-tooth school.
For those who like the sweet stuff this variation of plain
maple syrup is worth trying:
Put one half pound of strained honey in a double boiler, or
a small pan placed in water. _Heat very slowly_, adding a
half pint of pure maple syrup with which has been previously
mixed two teaspoons of powdered cinnamon and a dash of
caraway. Heat and stir until thoroughly mixed—but do not
boil. Serve warm.
