Ingredients

  • 250g/9oz plain flour
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • 3 free-range eggs
  • 425ml/¾ pint full-fat milk
  • 110g/4oz melted butter
  • 75g/3oz caster sugar
  • 25g/1oz butter
  • 250g/9oz strawberries
  • 1 lemon
  • 500ml/18fl oz vanilla ice cream
  • 4-8 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

  • For the waffles, preheat a waffle maker to a medium setting and preheat the oven to 140C/275F/Gas 1.
  • Mix the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Whisk in the eggs, milk and butter until well combined.
  • Brush the waffle maker with a little melted butter and then ladle some of the batter into each well of the waffle maker. Close the lid and cook for five minutes, or until golden-brown and crisp. Remove and place on a tray in the oven to keep warm, while you use the rest of the batter.
  • For the strawberry compôte, place the sugar and five tablespoons of water with the butter in a saucepan. Add the strawberries and lemon zest. Simmer for five minutes.
  • To serve, stack the waffles onto each of four plates, top with some strawberry compôte and a dollop of vanilla ice cream. Finish with a drizzle of maple syrup.
