  • Servings 12

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups buttermilk
  • 2 eggs
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons maple flavor
  • 1 package or jar (3 oz) cooked real bacon pieces or bits
  • 1 1/2 cups real maple or maple-flavored syrup

Steps

  • 1
    Heat waffle maker. In large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In medium bowl, beat buttermilk, eggs, butter and maple flavor with wire whisk until well blended. Pour over dry ingredients; stir just until moistened.
  • 2
    Sprinkle about 2 teaspoons bacon pieces on each waffle grid. Spoon batter over bacon, using amount recommended by manufacturer. Close lid of waffle maker. Bake until steaming stops, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining bacon and batter. Serve waffles with syrup.

  • If you don’t have buttermilk on hand, you can use regular milk plus vinegar. Pour 4 teaspoons white vinegar into a 2-cup measuring cup; add enough milk to equal 1 3/4 cups.
  • You can fry your own bacon instead of purchasing already cooked bacon pieces. Cook 6 to 8 strips of bacon until crisp, drain and crumble to equal about 1/2 cup of pieces.
