Recipe by Daniel Myers / While this recipe is from the seventeenth century (and therefore post-medieval) it's the most authentic one I have at this point. Surprisingly there are very few medieval recipes for wafers or waffles. Read more . Perhaps I'm not looking at the right sources. Ingredients:
1/2 cup flour |
1/3 cup cream |
1 egg yolk |
1 tbsp. rose water |
3 tbsp. sugar |
pinch cinnamon |
pinch salt |
Directions:
1. Mix ingredients together well.
2. Spoon out into a wafer (or pizzelle) maker and cook to desired doneness.
3. The wafers will keep for weeks in a sealed, airtight container.

5. Source [The English Housewife, G. Markham]: To make Wafers To make the best Wafers, take the finest wheat-flowers you can get, and mix it with Cream, the yelks of Eggs, Rose-water, Sugar, and Cinamon, till it be a little thicker than Pancake-batter, and then warming your Wafter Irons on a charcoal-fire, anoint them first with sweet Butter, and than lay on your batter, and press it, and bake it white or brown at your pleasure.
