DIRECTION
- Preheat the waffle press until the green ‘READY’ light illuminates.
- Mix warm milk, yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar together and leave for 15 minutes to activate.
- In a large bowl mix together flour, butter, 1 tablespoon of sugar, vanilla paste, egg and salt until it is well combined. Add milk mixture and mix well to form dough; once a ball has formed, allow to rest for 10 minutes, and then mix in the pearl sugar.
- Roll 100 gram balls of dough, flatten them slightly and place them into the waffle press. Lower the lid, lock it down and cook for 5 minutes or until desired doneness. Remove with silicon tongs.
- Serve straight away with fresh berries, syrup or ice cream.
TIP: Make sure the green ‘READY’ light is illuminated before cooking another batch.
TIP: Pearl sugar is a traditional rock sugar. Alternatively, crush sugar cubes into pearl like clusters.
