Ingredients: 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1 tablespoon baking powder; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 4 large eggs, room temperature; 2 cups buttermilk; 1/2 cup butter, melted; 3 tablespoons chopped pecans

I like cooking with buttermilk. These golden buttermilk waffles are my husband's favorite breakfast, so we enjoy them often. They're as easy to prepare as regular waffles, but their unique taste makes them exceptional.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs, room temperature
2 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup butter, melted
3 tablespoons chopped pecans

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, beat eggs until light. Add buttermilk; mix well. Add dry ingredients and beat until batter is smooth. Stir in butter.
Pour about 3/4 cup batter onto a lightly greased preheated waffle iron. Sprinkle with a few pecans. Bake according to manufacturer's directions until golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter and pecans.

I made these this morning and my wife and I both thought they were delicious! Light, yet filling and full of flavor. I veganized the recipe, using Earth Balance instead of butter, soy milk and apple cider vinegar instead of buttermilk, and ground flax seed mixed with water for the binder.
