Waffle

My son Kamil and Faris recently wanted waffle for their breakfast. Since I was busy with orders so I asked them to make the waffles themselves ...with my supervision of course. Here’s the recipe, makes about 8 waffles

2 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon of salt

4 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoon sugar

2 eggs at room temperature

1 1/2 cup of milk, at room temperature

2/3 cup of melted butter.

Method :

Making waffles is easy, the batter is thinner than pancakes and you can do everything by hand. Ok, first mix the flour with salt, baking powder and sugar. Set aside. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then pour in the milk. Pour this mixture into the flour. Stir until all is well mix. Then add the melted butter and stir again until all is fully blended. Don’t overmix.

Turn on the machine, and when the iron is hot, pour the batter to almost full. Bake until they are golden and crisp.

Peach Pie

It has been a while since my last post. Not that busy if I must say ...maybe a bit lazy I guess...hihi.. I've been baking few new recipes recently but only now I have courage to update them as few of my friends in facebook requested for the recipe. For those who love pastry should try this one cause it's so easy and take less than an hour to prepare.

You can substitute the peach with strawberry, apple or whatever fruit that suits you. Just be creative ...
