Unbirthday Buttermilk Waffles

Jump to recipe

We all know the Mad Hatter was onto something brilliant with the celebration of the “Unbirthday”. The whole concept is awesome! You only get to enjoy your birthday one day a year, but your unbirthday party can last all year long. That alone is worth celebrating! (Ok, I’ll stop.) The same idea goes for these waffles. They are definitely any day of the week buttermilk waffles… but whipped cream and sprinkles make anything special, am I right? (Caramel sauce doesn’t hurt either.) Of course, you can use any topping of your choice. It’s YOUR unbirthday after all. 😉

As organic as possible:

1 3/4 cup Flour

2 Tbsp Sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking Powder

1 tsp baking Soda

1/4 tsp Salt

2 Eggs, beaten

2 cups Buttermilk

1/2 cup Sunflower oil (or subtle oil of your choice)

1 1/2 tsp Vanilla

Caramel sauce, whipped cream and sprinkles (optional, along with any other toppings of your choice!)

Preheat your waffle maker. Lightly coat with non-stick spray. I use a Krups Waffle Maker, you can find it by clicking here.

In a large bowl add flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a bowl and whisk together.

Add eggs, buttermilk, oil, and vanilla to dry ingredients and stir until incorporated. (Little lumps are okay!)

Using a 1 cup measure, scoop the batter onto each waffle grid square.

Close lid and don’t peak until indicator shows done! (Or according to manufacturer instructions.)

Remove with tongs or fork.

Repeat until batter is gone. Serve warm with your favorite toppings! Makes about 12 waffles.

Happy Unbirthday! (Or birthday… if it just so happens to be!)

  1. Waffles are my all time favorite thing. Your recipe sounds AMAZING !!! but I don’t have a waffle maker 🙁 Time to invest !!!!!!! Amazon here I come 🙂

      1. Avec plaisir! I just wish my kids would eat something more exciting (and adult) like pumpkin waffles with maple butter! All in good time 😉 Thanks Roberta!

      2. Oh I’m sure that they eventually will Sadie. Kiddies will be kiddies I know but I generally find that kids who eat good food at home become more adventurous with new tastes as they grow older.

  2. Unbirthday, unMonday, untaxday, they all hold a special place in our hearts as do waffles. Chicken and waffles, waffle cones, Waffle House… I’m guessing the anti-waffle poles are skewed… (It is election season. Another good reason for waffles.)

  3. A VERY happy un-birthday to you! Kindred you actually …. my daughters grew up with the notion that an unbirthday is a right and I’m happy to endorse it along with Lewis Carroll …. your children have a GREAT mummy because great mummy’s think alike, right? And obviously I must be one having embraced the unbirthday forEVER! Bisous ?

  4. Hard to believe I missed such a celebration, while working to shut things down for the winter… I believe a make up day is in order…!

  5. Of course I started a diet yesterday ? These look soooo good!! I’ll have to give this recipe a try like -15 pounds from now lol

  6. Oh these look so yummy, Sadie! That is my favorite scene from Alice in Wonderland! I’ve always wanted to have an Alice in Wonderland-themed birthday party, and these would be so perfect! 😉
