Hi, I'm Jillian. I'm a teacher turned stay-at-home mom. I miss the creativity teaching provided so I'm always trying to find time to exercise my artistic abilities. Mostly that means cooking and baking. My blog is dedicated to providing restaurant-quality recipes for the home cook.

Ingredients

• FOR SERVING:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup golden brown sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 Tablespoon ground ginger
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 4 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
• 6 Tablespoons butter, melted
• 1/2 cup sour cream, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup molasses
• Powdered sugar, sifted
• Buttermilk Syrup

Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Preheat and prepare your waffle iron as per manufacturer’s instruction (some say spray with nonstick cooking spray, and some do not).
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. Keep whisking until no brown sugar clumps are left.
In a medium bowl whisk together eggs, buttermilk, butter, sour cream, and molasses.
Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and whisk together until just combined and no flour pockets remain.
Fill waffle wells with batter and cook according to manufacturer’s instructions. (Each waffle iron is different so be sure to use the amount of batter your unit’s instruction manual calls for.) The waffles are done when they’re crisp and golden. Repeat with remaining batter and serve immediately.
