Directions
-
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy and light in color.

-
Stir the buttermilk and melted shortening into the beaten eggs.
-
Add the dry ingredients (likely flour mix implied by context, sugar, and baking soda) to the wet mixture.
-
Beat until just combined; the batter should be slightly lumpy, not smooth.

Pour approximately half a cup of batter onto the center of the hot waffle iron.
-
Cook until golden brown and crispy, usually about 3 to 5 minutes.
-
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
