Annie's Waffles

A Brief History of the Waffle Iron | Innovation | Smithsonian Magazine

 I'm not sure who Annie is and sadly Hi-Ho is no longer with us to ask. I would love to have another conversation with you dear Mom, especially times like now when things are just so hard. Miss you Mom. 

Ingredients

Whites of 3 eggs , beaten
Yolks of 3 eggs, not beaten
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 large spoon butter, melted
1 and 1/2 cups milk.

Process

"Add unbeaten yolks to whites and beat together lightly. Put sugar and baking powder into the flour. Add flour to eggs, alternating with 1 and 1/2 cups milk. Add a little nutmeg."

Question : How did they make waffles before an electric waffle iron existed?
