I have always loved bubble waffles, also known as egg waffles. They are a street food popular in Hong Kong and made with a special iron. Bubble waffles are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with big pockets of air that make them light and fluffy.
I have fond memories of eating them as a child, and they are still one of my favourite snacks today.
Making bubble waffles at home is actually quite easy, and only requires a few ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. All you need is some eggs, sugar, baking powder, milk and butter (or vegetable oil).
You can also add vanilla extract or other flavourings if you like. The key to making perfect bubble waffles is to get the batter nice and smooth before cooking it in the waffle iron.
- Preheat the waffle iron according to manufacturer’s instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined
- Add the flour and baking powder to the wet ingredients and mix until everything is well combined and there are no lumps remaining
- Spray the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter into each section of the waffle iron (or however much your specific waffle iron requires)
- Close the lid and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through
- 5 Serve immediately with your desired toppings (fresh fruit, Nutella, whipped cream, etc
