Light Crisp Oat Waffles

If you skipped the bacon fat, and I don't....you could almost call these healthy. Clipped from a women's magazine, mid 1950's. The amount of baking powder is not an error, it is needed to create the crisp, tender waffle.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of all purpose flour-may need more flour, see Krum's note below- shopping list
- 1/2 cup of yellow cornmeal shopping list
- 1 cup of rolled oats shopping list
- 2 tablespoons baking powder shopping list
- 1/2 tsp of salt shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- 1/2 cup of melted bacon drippings (or other shortning) shopping list
- 3 cups of buttermilk shopping list
How to make it
- Put the dry ingredients in a bowl.
- Make a well in the center.
- Break the eggs, put in the well.
- Top with melted bacon fat (not hot) and then the buttermilk.
- Stir together.
- Batter will be a thick pouring consistency.
- Let stand 20-30 minutes to allow the bp to do its' work.
- The resting time will also create a thicker batter.
- The batter should nearly double.
- Preheat the waffle iron while the batter rests.
- Brush lightly with oil and bake waffles to a light golden brown according to the wafflemaker instructions.
- Keep in a low 200 degree oven until all are done.
- Serve with real maple syrup or lightly buttered and sprinkled with sugar crystals.
