Description
Experience the delightful flavor of homemade Dutch stroopwafels, a crispy treat filled with gooey syrup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 15 ml milk
- 7 grams dried instant yeast
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 120 grams unsalted butter
- 80 grams soft white sugar
- 1 egg
- Pinch of salt
- 200 grams Dutch stroop (or substitute)
- 120 grams brown sugar
- 80 grams unsalted butter
- 1 tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Combine milk and yeast in a bowl. Let stand for a moment to allow the yeast to dissolve.
- Combine flour, butter, sugar, egg, and salt in another bowl.
- Pour in the yeast mixture and knead until smooth.
- Cover the bowl and let the dough rise for one hour.
- Combine all the filling ingredients in a saucepan and stir until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- Let it simmer for a while. The stroop will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Shape the dough into balls weighing about 35 grams each. Make a total of 14.
- Turn your stroopwafel iron on the highest setting.
- Place a ball of dough in the iron and close the iron. Don’t flatten the waffle too much; you should still be able to cut through it.
- Bake for 1-2 minutes until the waffle is nicely golden brown.
- Remove the waffle from the iron and immediately use a round cutter to cut out a nice circle of about 8 to 9 cm (3 to 3.5 inches).
- Place the hot waffle on a cutting board and cut horizontally with a sharp knife. The stroopwafel is very hot, so use an oven mitt to hold it in place.
- Spread the (hot!) stroop on half a waffle.
- Place the other half on top, pressing gently if necessary.
- Let the waffle cool on a wire rack.
- Repeat for all the balls.
Notes
For sugar substitutes, consider stevia, monk fruit, or allulose. Avoid honey or maple syrup.
