Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups ground hazelnuts
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 1.25 cups milk
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups blackberries (fresh or frozen)
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar (for blackberry cream)
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons whole hazelnuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, ground hazelnuts, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Preheat your waffle iron according to its instructions and lightly grease it with a non-stick spray or butter.
Pour the batter into the waffle iron (amount will depend on your specific waffle maker) and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until golden brown and crisp. Repeat until all the batter is used.
To prepare the blackberry cream, combine the blackberries and granulated sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the blackberries break down and form a syrupy consistency, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
In a chilled bowl, whip the whipping cream using a hand or stand mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the cooled blackberry mixture until well incorporated.
Serve the warm waffles topped with a generous dollop of blackberry cream. Garnish with powdered sugar, whole hazelnuts, and extra blackberries, if desired.
