Taste & Create: Buttermilk Waffles

***Taste & Create is a fabulous monthly blog event in which participants are randomly paired off to choose and prepare a dish from their partner's blog. If you'd like to join us, please email me at cowgirlmin07 [at] gmail [dot] com by the 8th of the month!! *** 

 

My partner this month is Carol from No Reason Needed.  I know I can always find a delicious recipe on her blog, and this month was no exception.  I was drawn to her Buttermilk Spice Muffins, but then.  Then, immediately below the muffins on the list, were these Buttermilk Waffles!

I didn't change a thing, although I did follow the 1/2 oil, 1/2 butter suggestion, so I'll list that as I made them.  The recipe is originally from Swanky Paper, and I'm so glad Carol found it and tried it.

This recipe will be one we return to.  It's so easy to whip up and the waffles are light, fluffy, crispy and delicious!
