Waffles are quite tasty, but high-calorie: an average of 320 calories per hundred grams of the finished dish (excluding additives: sauces, cream, honey or confiture). Compared to them, cottage cheese waffles seem to be dietary (only 190 calories), which makes it possible to eat them much more often. The dish can even be afforded by ladies who carefully monitor their figure. This article looks at several recipes for cottage cheese waffles along with their step-by-step preparation, and also reveals some secrets of a successful waffle dough.

Waffle iron recipe

The most common set of ingredients for making waffles looks like this:

• 260 grams of cottage cheese;
• 100 grams of liquid cream or milk;
• two eggs;
• 150 grams of flour;
• two art. l. granulated sugar;
• 1 tsp each without a slide of soda and vanilla sugar.

You also need some butter to grease the waffle iron - the cheese waffles can stick a little. If the appliance has a non-stick coating, then thisstep can be skipped.

Cooking

Preparing dough for curd wafers is very simple, even a schoolboy can do it: first you need to knead the cottage cheese with a fork or lightly beat with a blender, add cream and sugar, as well as an egg and soda with vanilla. Stir thoroughly until smooth and add the sifted flour at the end. It is better to let the dough stand for ten minutes so that it reaches the condition and only then start baking curd wafers. Preheat the waffle iron well and before each laying the dough, be sure to generously grease with oil so that future waffles do not burn. It is more convenient to bake small waffles by placing one tablespoon of dough in the middle of the mold and pressing the top lid well. Wait until the dough acquires a delicious ruddy color (no need to bring it to brown shades), and carefully remove the finished waffle, prying it with a fork or knife. If desired, you can roll it into a tube while still hot, but this type of dough does not really like such procedures.

Fragrant Lemon Wafers (with photo)

The recipe for curd wafers with lemon zest will make an excellent breakfast not only for children, but also for adults with a sweet tooth. To prepare the dough you will need:

• two hundred grams of cottage cheese;
• three eggs;
• grated zest of one lemon;
• three spoons of sugar;
• 120 grams of milk or low-fat kefir;
• 60 grams of butter;
• 160 grams of wheat flour.

From so manyingredients, usually eight wafers are obtained, so we independently calculate the necessary proportions for the required number of curd wafers. To prepare the dough, first you need to divide the eggs into proteins and yolks, knead the cottage cheese with sugar and softened butter (you can melt it in a water bath), add lemon zest. Next, add the yolks, mashed with milk, and flour to the curd mass. In a separate bowl, beat the proteins until a stable foam (as for a protein cream) and carefully, with a spoon, introduce them into the curd dough. Bake in the usual way in a waffle iron.

Multi-baker recipe

Progress in the field of culinary art does not stand still: every year there is something new, more perfect, not only facilitating the process of cooking, but also making it more diverse. Therefore, a multi-baker is a rather necessary thing in the household, especially if a person values time (food is cooked several times faster), as well as those who prefer home cooking to restaurant food. With it, you can cook not only waffles from various types of dough, but also muffins, donuts, hot sandwiches, grilled vegetables and even scrambled eggs with fillings. Isn't it a miracle?

This multi-bake waffle dough recipe is made with sparkling water. Such cottage cheese wafers are dietary, since most of the usual wheat flour is replaced with rye flour, which makes them not only lighter, but also fragrant. Ingredients needed:

• 500 grams of fat-free cottage cheese.
• Two hundred eachgrams of sugar and margarine.
• Five eggs.
• 150 grams of sparkling water without additives.
• 250 grams of rye flour (you can also use corn flour, but then the calorie content of the waffles will increase significantly).
• 150 grams of wheat flour.
• 1 tsp baking powder, you can also add vanilla if desired.

Step by step

To prepare the dough for waffles, first grind the soft margarine with sugar in a bowl until light foam, and then add the eggs and cottage cheese. Using a blender, turn the contents of the dish into a uniform mass, add rye flour to it, then soda and mix again, making sure that small lumps do not form.

Combine wheat flour with baking powder and add to the main mass at the end of the kneading. Allow the resulting dough to stand for a few minutes while the multibaker heats up. Cottage cheese waffles are baked in this machine quite quickly (no more than five minutes), so you should not leave it unattended for a long time.

One more recipe note

This recipe is even more dietary as it is gluten free, which is true for many people. Includes:

• Two hundred grams of cottage cheese.
• Two apples.
• One egg.
• Two spoons of sugar.
• 90 grams of rice flour.
• If desired, add a little cinnamon for flavor.

Knead cottage cheese with egg and sugar, add a pinch of s alt. Remove from an applecore and seeds (peel is not needed) and grate on a coarse grater, slightly squeeze out excess juice with your hands. Combine the curd mass with apple, add flour and knead thoroughly until smooth. If it seems that the dough is watery, then you can add a little more flour, because its amount depends on the presence of liquid in the dough. Spread one spoonful into each cell of the multibaker, carefully pressing the lid. Bake until a light brown color that rivals the amazing apple flavor. Using a fork, transfer the finished waffles to a serving plate, add a couple of spoons of thick sour cream or a scoop of ice cream, you can decorate with fresh berries or grated chocolate.

Dough and Baking Tips

The taste of ready-made wafers made from cottage cheese dough is very reminiscent of cheesecakes, and baked with a multi-baker, they even look a little similar: with a crispy golden crust and soft inside.

These waffles taste much better hot, so don't wait for them to cool down or cook them in advance (three hours before serving). Given that they bake very quickly, cooking can begin half an hour before breakfast starts.

If it turned out that during the baking process, the curd wafers stick to the surface of the waffle iron, you should add a little flour to the dough (no more than two tablespoons), and also do not forget to grease the mold with oil.

Usually served with berry sauce, whipped cream or jam, this type of waffle is also very good with chocolate syrup and honey. And if you add to the plate when servinga handful of fresh chopped fruits (peach, apricot), then breakfast will turn from tasty to he althy, which is very important for young mothers.
