Golden Waffles - Waffle and Pancake Mix, Flour, Original, 33-Ounce Can

Update: I found this waffle mix in large foil envelopes on Amazon. They are much more reasonably priced, and frankly, it's easier to dig out the mix from a large envelope than the cans. And you don't have to worry about the can once it's empty. The foil envelopes are a much better deal. Whenever we travel, one of my criteria is the restaurant must have a complimentary breakfast and waffle maker. I enjoy making waffles when travelling. I've noticed on a regular basis that the machines have a sticker on them that say "Golden Malted" so I know the brand I like. The waffles are always crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and flavorful. Well, when I saw this can on Amazon, I immediately ordered it. I have a professional style waffle maker I bought from Amazon many years ago. So, I made two batches -- one for my wife who prefers pancakes, and one for me for waffles. I have to share some of my results: Double the recipe realistically for even two of you if you'd like a couple left over, or if you are cooking for a couple kids. Use two cups of mix, two eggs, and 1 and 1/4 cups fat free milk for both pancakes and waffles. If you use more than that you're going to have watery pancakes and waffles. Also, don't add the melted butter until you've mixed the milk and batter together or it will clump due to the cold milk. We use half cups of batter and they make nice sized smaller pancakes or full waffles. Are they expensive? Yes, you could get a cheaper brand, but these really have that "golden malted" flavor you only find from this brand. Kind of makes me feel I'm on a weekend vacation. Highly recommended.

I've been a chef for years and this mix is the same brand I used. The resealable can makes Sunday morning waffles easier than you can imagine, and the waffles come out as crisp and light, and fluffy (if you have a flip waffle iron especially) as any restaurant will offer. The Golden Malted brand tastes better than ANY waffle mix on your grocer's shelf. If you travel, and have had the breakfast buffet with the great waffles, there's a good chance that this is the brand they use. It's a little more costly, but the quality is so high. I highly recommend.

I LOVE this mix!! We had them at the Mariott and I had to ask what brand they used because it was the first time I’d ever had a Belgian waffle that I loved this much! Most batters are just fine, but I’ll usually eat a quarter or maybe a little more and that it. With these, the sweet flavor was absolutely delicious and I had a whole waffle each morning we stayed at the hotel. Now, I’ve got the batter for home. Yay!

It was a Christmas gift and he enjoyed making the waffles and specifically enjoyed eating them

This mix makes great tasting waffles. My only complaint is that it's expensive. The can says 1 cup of mix will make 3-4 waffles. We use a Waring Pro Waffle Maker and will get 3 waffles per cup of mix, which is good for the 3 of us. I double the ingredients so we have extra waffles for my son's breakfast before school. He likes them way better than frozen grocery store waffles. It's pretty easy, add egg, water and melted butter and you're good to go. I tried adding cinnamon, vanilla and a grated apple. Came out really good, you just have to cook it longer, maybe twice as long. Once I added blueberries. Oh man, they were great, but the blueberries were hard to clean out of the waffle maker! I tried this brand because a friend of mine considers himself a waffle aficionado, if there is such a thing :) It's the only brand he uses. While in Afghanistan in 2004, he emailed them asking if they could donate anything for a morale booster for the troops. They donated a pallet! They shipped it to our Air Force Base and it was brought over with the next rotation of troops. They were able to cook waffles for a couple hundred troops. Pretty nice of them. Since then I will pick up a can from time to time. We try, and like other brands as well, but Golden Malted seems to be a favorite in our household. Pro tip: When the price is high, buy direct for like $8 a bag. Save an empty can and empty the bag into the can.

Good

I've tried the mix approx a year ago after having the waffles at a hotel which were great. When I tried then, they were ok, not nearly as good as the hotels etc and not nearly worth the cost. I just tried the new branded version here and it was worse than the 1st time. I've tried 4 different mixes over the past couple of months and believe it or not Krusteaz was better to me than all of them. Reminded me of the hotel waffles although not quite that good of course but quite good. Golden was the worse?? The texture was there...golden brown and crispy on the outside and moist on the inside but flavor bland. I've followed the instructions and even added some vanilla for more flavor...didn't work. Open to suggestions?

I Just got my order and I'm ready to place a reorder. The waffles came out so light and taste soo delicious!!! I'm so glad i decided to purchase this waffles mix. The waffles taste better than any other waffles I've ever tasted in my life. It's a must have.
