This batter comes out much too thick. I made a double batch and had to add about a half cup of milk to thin the batter. I made it with fresh strawberries just picked from my garden -- but the flavor of the waffles was still only fair/good. All in all, I'll do something else with my fresh strawberries next time. Maybe frozen strawberries would work better anyway due to the higher water content.
Strawberry Waffles with Buttered Strawberry Sauce
Pureed fresh strawberries give these homemade waffles a delicious fruity flavor. The buttered strawberry sauce complements the waffles well and is perfect for topping frozen yogurt.
