Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 0.25 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon red food coloring

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the wet ingredients: buttermilk, milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and red food coloring. Whisk until fully blended.
  4. Combine the wet and dry mixtures, stirring gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Divide the batter into two bowls. Keep one portion plain and fold cocoa into the other.
Cooking
  1. Pour alternating spoonfuls of both batters onto the preheated waffle iron to create a marbled effect. Close the lid and cook until golden brown.
  2. Remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately.

Notes

For extra fluffy waffles, separate the egg yolks from the whites and whip the egg whites to stiff peaks before folding them in. Adjust the red food coloring to your desired hue. Store cooled waffles in an airtight container for 2-3 days in the refrigerator or freeze for up to a month.
