Every winter leading up to Christmas, I meticulously prepare these scrumptious Limburg waffles.

They are always gone before Christmas, indicating that the recipe is a winner.

I hope you enjoy them as well; be sure to give them a try.

Ingredients:

  • 750 grams of butter

  • 800 grams granulated sugar

  • 80 grams vanilla sugar (10 sachets of 8 grams)

  • 1500 gram flour

  • 21 grams of yeast (3 sachets of 7 grams)

The batter:

If all ingredients have the same temperature then they mix better and you get a smooth and beautiful batter.

  • Step 1: Let´s begin and start by mixing the butter and granulated sugar.

  • Step 2: Continue mixing until you have completely incorporated the sugar into the butter and you have a yellowish mixture.

  • Step 3: Then add the vanilla sugar and mix briefly.

  • Step 4: It´s important to add the eggs one at a time.
    This makes for a fluffier batter and prevents your batter from flaking.

  • Step 5: We are almost at the end. Now add the flour in portions.
    Again, do not add the next portion until the previous one is completely incorporated into the batter.

  • Step 6: Finally, add the yeast. I chose dried, instant yeast.
    Of course, this may also be replaced with fresh yeast.

  • Step 7: If all goes well, you now have a firm, sticky batter. I pour this over into a larger bowl.

  • Step 8: Cover the bowl with batter and let it stand overnight so the batter can rise slightly. (about 8 hours)


Baking:

  • Step 9: Grease your waffle iron with butter, oil or baking spray.

  • Step 10: Decide how big the portions should be for your waffle iron.
    In my case, that's a generous tablespoon.

  • Step 11: Bake the waffles for a few minutes until golden brown.
    Baking time, of course, depends on your waffle iron.

  • Step 12: Let your waffles cool on a baking rack.

Curious how this baking process works then check out the video below.

Mouthwatering 😋
