So how exactly does Pancake batter differ from Waffle batter? Google is being contradictory

>> No.4846631

Doesn't waffle batter have more fat to make the waffles crunchier?

more eggs=more protein=crunchy result

Aside of batter, waffles are crunchier because more surface area is contacting the heating element, leading to a great ratio of crispy crust to fluffy interior than a pancake.

I find that making waffles requires more dairy in them

well I would not put beef burgundy in pancake or a waffle. I'd put it in a crepe. Therefore pancake and waffle are equally inferior to crepe.

You make them from batter? Where? I'm used to them being made from sweet brioche dough.

WAFFLES

I use the same recipes for both. It doesn't seem to matter.

Belgian waffles best, French toast second best

>> No.4846834

>>4846606
It doesn't. Any recipe that can make pancakes can make waffles and vice versa .

>> No.4848180

C'mon co/ck/s, lookup a few classic recipes.

Waffles use a method similar to a chiffon cake in which eggs are separated and a yolk/flour/milk/sugar/seasoning is incorporated with a whipped egg white to provide an airier texture and, yes, increase maillarded surface area with the waffle iron.

Pancakes are simply sweetened quickbreads, a sweet version of an english muffin with a chemical rather than biological leavening agent

>> No.4848185

It doesn't matter as long as you use cold syrup and you don't put butter on it.

/fit/izen with a question

I've made /fit/ pancakes a bunch (pic related) and I just came across a recipe for /fit/ waffles (pic to follow) ...
the waffles seem like they'd be much more dry ...

/fit/ pancakes:
1/2c oats
1c cottage cheese
4 eggs
1t vanilla extract

/fit/ waffles
1/2c oats
1 scoop whey
1/2c cottage cheese
1/2c egg whites
1t baking powder
dash salt
1T sweetener

I think I might make a half-batch of both tomorrow morning, do a side-by-side comparison.

But wondering if any /ck/ooks had some insight into the different ingredient combos.

hmm so maybe that's why the waffle version uses egg whites only instead of whole eggs?

>> No.4848198

>>4848191
No, it does that to decrease the calorie content while retaining the proteinaceous qualities of egg whites.
The recipe could be improved texturally by beating the egg whites to soft peak (or hard peak if you really want the foam structure), but as is it is simply a calorie consideration

Also, add some cinnamon and some sweetener to it. Cocoa powder would also work. Just things that add some cheap, zero calorie flavor to make the textural nightmare that is /fit/ recipes more bearable

Source: I've been through the rigors of /fit/ before and the food wasn't exactly delightful

OK
If I have to make them PANCAKES every time, I know how to make them awesome, I do a variety of fillings, everyone can be happy, my griddle takes 10 seconds to clean

Waffle irons are a bitch in my asshole. a pain to clean, a pain to figure out exactly how much batter will make a full waffle without GOOP spilling over every side, and I don't know how to make soft yet crispy glorious belgian waffles like I had in Europe so FUCK IT.

That said, I LOVE me some eggo PB&Js

ok, I'm back. Made 'em both this morning (well, made 1/2 recipes of each ... muh calories) ...

As I said earlier, I've made the pancakes a lot, and yep, they're still good.
The waffles made quite a good showing! I enjoyed them a lot.
Yes they were a bit drier, but some of that dryness was offset by the "airiness" of the puffed-up waffle texture.

So yep, I'd make 'em again.

Probably stick with the pancakes more just since it takes a pan not an appliance, but busting out the waffle maker is definitely a viable option with this recipe.

hard to say. I had a French teacher in high never mind whatever, thick or thin, egg or not, first one goes to the cook.

I don't know about you, but all my life, the hardest to put ythe reins on, is not someone else. but me. and Ive been lucking fucky so far so good, but the sum bitch gets out of control. ery once in a while. do the best you can

Pancakes are amazing.
Pancakes >> Waffles.
Well, depending on how they're made. Because if a pancake is made with shitty batter, it won't be "okay" it'll just be shitty. But if you get a good pancake, it's fucking delicious and melts in your mouth.

I can't vouch for anybody other than myself and don't really know what I'll find if I search google or read the boxes of premade mixes, but as far as I understand it, I was raised to put eggs in waffle batter but NOT in pancake batter.

And I think that's how things ought to be.
