Preparation Steps
1
Melt the butter in a small saucepan, then let it cool to room temperature.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and insect flour. This ensures that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
3
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the melted butter, vanilla extract, and milk. The insect flour adds a unique nutty aroma to the waffles.
4
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing constantly. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the batter tough!
5
Preheat the waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent the batter from sticking.
6
Pour a portion of batter into the waffle iron, then cook until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. The time may vary depending on the iron's performance.
7
Remove the finished waffle, then let it cool slightly on a wire rack to keep it crispy.
8
Serve fresh, sprinkled with roasted crickets and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
