This recipe was developed by Amanda Maiorano (@madeby.mandy) using our mushrooms.

Ingredients:

150g self-raising flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 egg

240 ml milk

20g chives, finely chopped

2 tbsp olive oil

1/2 tsp salt

200g bacon

45g maple syrup

250g button mushrooms, sliced

Salt and pepper, to season


Method:

1) Preheat oven to 180°C and line a tray with baking paper. Remove some of the fat from your bacon and place on baking tray. Cook for 6 minutes, then remove from oven and brush maple syrup on top. Return to oven for an additional 10 minutes, or until golden.

2) Meanwhile, mix flour and baking powder in a large bowl. Add egg, milk and chives, then whisk well until a smooth batter forms. Add olive oil and 1/2 tsp of salt, then whisk again.

3) Grease your waffle iron with oil spray or olive oil, then spoon approximately 1/4 - 1/2 cup of batter and cook according to manufacturer's directions. Repeat with remaining batter.

4) Heat the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil in a fry-pan over medium heat. Once hot, add mushrooms and sauté for 8-10 minutes, or until soft and tender. Season with salt and pepper.

5) Serve waffles with mushrooms, bacon and additional chopped chives. Enjoy!
