- Preparation instructions (step by step)
1. Prepare the dry ingredients
First, turn on the waffle iron to heat up well. In a large bowl, mix together the wheat and corn flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. Prepare the wet mixture
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, add the kefir, honey, and vanilla. Mix well until smooth.
3. Mix the dough
Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture. Mix slowly and finally add the melted (but not hot) butter. Try not to overmix so that the waffles remain fluffy.
4. Bake
Grease the pan. Pour about half a cup of the batter (depending on the size) and spread evenly. Bake until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
5. Make the Blackberry Compote
While the waffles are baking, place the blackberries, sugar, and water in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 4-5 minutes. The berries should soften and the mixture should thicken slightly.
How to Serve
Pour the hot blackberry compote over the warm waffles. For extra flavor, add whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
