Waffles & Pudding

We had such a great start to our Sunday morning with fresh waffles and homemade pudding. The pudding is not really a traditional pudding but it's what we grew up with and continue to make, the kids love this for breakfast, or lunch, or... well you get the idea!

Waffles
2 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs, separated
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla

Beat egg whites until peaks form. In a separate bowl, beat the yolks until creamy, add milk and vanilla. In another bowl combine the dry ingredients and add to the milk mixture, beat until smooth. Fold in the egg whites and margarine. Bake in a waffle maker for 3 minutes or until golden.

Pudding
2 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2-3 tbsp cornstarch

Pour milk into a saucepan and add sugar and bring to a boil. Meanwhile, put the cornstarch in a small bowl or cup and add just enough milk to allow you to mix the cornstarch so that it is lump free. Right before the milk boils I slowly stir this into the saucepan of milk. Stir until thickened, you might have to adjust the amount of cornstarch that you use. Add vanilla. Now to eat this all you do is dip the waffles in the pudding and enjoy!

*Note: You might have to adjust the sugar in the pudding. This is usually just done by eye, just taste it and adjust to your family's liking.

Have a great day!
