Hjertevafler (Norwegian Heart-Shaped Waffles)
These soft and sweet Norwegian waffles are so delicious topped with sour cream, whipped cream, jam, berries, chocolate, or if you're looking for a truly authentic topping: myseost! (brown whey cheese)
Ingredients
- 50 grams (1/4 cup) sugar
- 150 grams (1 + 1/4 cup) flour
- 230 ml (1 cup) milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 57 grams (1/2 stick) melted unsalted butter
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of cardamom (optional)
Topping
- Sour cream
- Sugar
- Lemon juice
- Fresh fruit
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together your dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, and cardamom (optional).
- In a separate bowl, combine your wet ingredients: sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter. You may have to heat up your milk slightly so that the butter doesn't re-solidify when you add it!
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients until everything is just mixed - it's okay if it's still slightly lumpy!
- Follow the instructions for your waffle iron to preheat the iron. Once ready, add about half a cup of waffle batter, spread it out, and let it cook for about 3 minutes (or whatever your waffle iron says!) until the waffles are golden brown and cooked all the way through. Repeat until you are out of batter.
- To make a delicious topping, mix together sour cream, lemon juice, and a bit of sugar to taste. Serve with fresh fruit and enjoy! You can also use whatever toppings you want!
