1 cup milk
1 sachet baking powder
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/2 cup white sugar

Where to find ingredients
All these ingredients are common pantry staples found in most South African supermarkets like Pick n Pay, Checkers, or Woolworths. You'll find flour, sugar, eggs, and milk in their usual sections. Baking powder is in the baking aisle. For the lemon zest, use fresh lemons from the produce section. Condensed milk is readily available, usually in the long-life milk or baking aisle, and you can find a variety of fruit jams with the spreads.
Preparation method
- Whisk the eggs and sugar together until well combined
- Fold in the freshly grated lemon zest
- Stir in the baking powder
- Gradually pour in the milk while slowly incorporating the flour to keep the batter smooth
- The batter should be creamy and spread easily across the waffle iron
- If it feels too thin, add a little extra flour until you reach the desired consistency
- Cook in a waffle iron, using either a stovetop plate or an electric waffle maker
- Serve hot with your favourite toppings, like condensed milk or fruit jam
