Waffle or Pancake?

This was brought up a while ago and is clearly the most important subject we need to be talking about right now.

 

[cemeteryismyhome]

I can't decide

For me it's definitely waffles. I like how the honey and cream just sits in the little crevices on top. Right?With pancakes, all those toppings just float off the top and deposit on the sides. I'm not saying that's not cool in it's own way, but still I'll stick with waffles.


I had so many late night cravings satisfied with Belgian waffles

 

[starboy2k]

I would devour

strawberry waffles and pancakes
blueberry waffles and pancakes
regular waffles and pancakes

so I literally can't choose. (too much of an indecisive fatass to do so)

 

[quietwoods]

I am disgusted at the number of people making the wrong choice

waffles because sometimes pancakes are too sweet and dense and I no matter how much I try to prevent or avoid choking on one it always happens (I only eat them when I am at restaurants and they have some kind of unique flavour)

 

[cemeteryismyhome]

I love both but don't eat either, because, I'm pushing 60 and if I just look at food, I get fat and my teeth rot out. I don't know why I care about that actually. And no offense to anyone who is fat and/or has bad teeth.

Pancake every once in a while. Just a few. Put chocolate on them... hmhm.... Perfect.

Pancakes since my mom passed away, she made the best waffles

Ordered some Nutella waffles just because of this thread, thanks for the fatness all!

Waffles.... they have texture, don't seem to get soggy as much, hold the syrup in tasty cells, and make great holders for a bit of ice cream inside.

And the crispy shards that are left are a treat unto themselves!
Waffles!!

They're made-up of the exact same thing as pancakes, except they have those little squares on top which can hold more honey, cream and Nutella and get you even fatter

My poor stomach.

The scale will tell the tale.

You've restored my faith in humanity after a day filled with heathen pancakers

I never eaten a waffle so I guess choose pancakes.

And there goes my newly restored faith

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Crepes.

But for the sake of this thread, waffles.

The Devil's Own Fiendishly Delightful Delectable Delicious Belgian-Style Waffle Recipe​

(This recipe requires 3 large eggs. As with most if not all baking, the eggs should be brought to room temperature before being cracked open for optimal results.)
(This recipe requires several dry ingredients. As with most if not all baking, the measured dry ingredients should be leveled off and NOT PACKED within their measuring device unless otherwise stated.)

In a large mixing bowl, sift in:
2 ½ Cups of all-purpose flour (you may substitute cake flour if making these waffles as a dessert).
½ teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon baking powder
4 tablespoons sugar (or ¼ Cup sugar, ROUNDED, neither flattened nor packed)
Mix the dry ingredients until well combined.

In a saucepan, melt ½ Cup Unsalted Butter. Set aside.

Separate 3 egg whites from yolks.

Beat the 3 egg whites until a bit foamy. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, beat together:
The 3 egg yolks
2 Cups Whole Milk
While beating, slowly add the melted butter to the yolk and milk mixture. This is to temper the eggs, so the melted butter doesn't cook/scramble them.
After butter is mixed in, add 1 tablespoon vanilla. Beat until consistent.
In the large bowl with the dry ingredients, create a crater in the middle of the powders. Pour the yolk-milk-vanilla mixture into the crater of the dry ingredients.
Beat lightly until consistent. Do not overmix! You want air bubbles and several lumps of unmixed dry ingredients to be visible.
GENTLY Mix in egg whites "by hand" using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Do not overmix!

Now you can gently add mix-ins, if desired. Berries, diced fruit, chocolate chips, etc. My recommendation: Fruity Pebbles cereal. Don't knock it until you've tried it. Kind of makes it like Funfetti cake.
Alternatively, you can wait until you pour a scoop of batter into the waffle iron and QUICKLY toss some mix-ins on top before closing the lid. This way, you can try a wide variety in one batch of waffles.

With my waffle iron (yours may be different; be sure to follow the included instruction manual), I would preheat it on medium heat and then spray it with butter or coat it with melted butter. Then, I would measure out ¾ Cup of batter, pour it onto the hot waffle iron, and then close it immediately. Don't force it closed: allow the gravity of the lid to do its thing. Allow it to bake for 4½ minutes. Remove with a WOODEN spoon/spatula (plastic will melt, metal will scratch the waffle iron, and fingers will burn. Be good: get wood). Transfer to a plate.
Spray/coat the waffle iron with butter between each waffle.
Measure out the next scoop of batter while you wait for the current waffle to cook (it saves time and keeps your butter from burning on the waffle iron).

You can top finished waffles with maple syrup, pancake syrup, fruit syrup, chocolate syrup, butter, heated pie filling (you can make yourself or buy in a can from the store and heat it in a saucepan while the waffles bake), ice cream, etc. I recommend dusting the waffles with powdered sugar using a sifter and gently tapping the sifter instead of turning the knob/lever, or you could use a fine-mesh metal strainer. Whatever you want!

Serves... idk, like 6? I never wrote it down ;_;

Remember: baking is a science; baking is NOT cooking. Substitute ingredients, methodologies, and measurements at YOUR OWN RISK.

After an exhaustive review of the results and discovering another 479 votes for waffles, it has been determined that waffles are superior by popular acclaim.

Thank you for your consideration, and all those who voted for pancakes will be referred to reeducation camps.

 

[Blurry_Buildings]

I love waffles but they require a special wafflemaker to make, all you need to make pancakes is a hot surface, some batter and your hopes and dreams

Pancakes also are soft and absorb all the butter and syrup, becoming goey which is the best texture. Waffles just hold the syrup on top which is convienent but they dont mix together into a cohesive mushy goo

 

[Soulless_Death]

Why not both?

 

[turbomightbegone]

I legitimately fucking love waffles so much,,. they got me through most of my childhood
i specifically remember the ones at my school being warm and perfectly coated in sugar,., and i would always beg for lunch money so i could buy them since they weren't a part of the free lunch system i was registered under
