Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Choose Serving Size 15 waffles

Ingredients 

  • 1½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ⅓ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons ricotta cheese
  • 1¼ cups milk kefir
  • 2 tablespoons instant coffee
  • 5 tablespoons butter melted
  • whipped cream for serving

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Stir well.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and ricotta until smooth. Gradually whisk in the milk kefir and instant coffee, followed by the melted butter.
  • Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until you achieve a smooth, creamy batter. Cover and let the batter rest for 30 minutes.
  • Warm up your waffle iron and lightly brush it with butter. Pour in the batter and cook each waffle until golden brown, continuing until all the batter is used up.
  • Serve the waffles warm, dusted with a hint of coffee and topped with a dollop of chilled whipped cream. Enjoy!

Notes

For the crispiest waffles, let the batter rest for 30 minutes before cooking, which is what develops that light, crisp texture. Store any leftovers in an airtight container and re-crisp in a toaster or waffle iron before serving.
