Description
These Red Velvet Marble Waffles combine the rich cocoa flavor of red velvet with a hint of vanilla, creating a stunning marbled effect perfect for brunch or any special occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons (12g) cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon (14g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 ¼ cups (300ml) buttermilk
- 2 eggs
- 5 tablespoons (70g) melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Red food coloring
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, and baking soda.
- In a separate bowl, mix the buttermilk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Add red food coloring until the desired shade is achieved.
- Combine the wet and dry ingredients gently to create the red velvet batter. Avoid overmixing—it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
- For the plain batter, repeat the same steps but omit the cocoa powder and food coloring.
- Spray your waffle maker with non-stick spray. Pour a small amount of red velvet batter, followed by plain batter, and swirl gently with a spatula to create a marbled effect.
- Cook according to your waffle maker’s instructions, usually 3-5 minutes per batch. The waffles should be crispy on the outside and fluffy inside.
- Repeat until all the batter is used. Keep cooked waffles warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven if needed.
Notes
Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the waffles light and fluffy. Grease the waffle maker generously to prevent sticking. If the batter is too thick, add a splash of buttermilk.
