Stroopwafel
Stroopwafel
known as waffle made of syrup, molasse or caramel. It is made from two very thin layers of baked dough with a caramel syrup in between. The place of origin is the city of Gouda Holland, wherein first recorded. Many versions of this waffle are sold on the street as a snack.It made its appearance in the late 18th or early 19th century by a baker who used leftovers of bread from the oven, made them crumbs and sweeten with syrup.
A story attributes the invention of Stroopwafel to the baker Gerard Kamphuisen, which puts history as date of first stroopwafel about 1810, the year in which the bakery opened. In 1840 we have the oldest known recipe for caramel waffle.
The 19th century Gouda was the only city in which they made waffles until 1870. In the 20th century, factories began to make stroopwafels. In 1960, there were 17 factories in Gouda and only four are currently still open.

Grease a mold with removable base Ø20-22cm (Ø7.9-8.7in), and place a sheet of greaseproof paper in the base. Grease the baking paper. Cover outside the form with aluminum foil to meet half the height. Through pour the beaten mixture. |
On the surface of the cake crumble into small crumbs 3 caramel waffles to cover the entire surface. |
Bake in preheated oven at 180°C (356°F, Gas:4.2) for 1 hour or until risen and golden brown the surface. Probably needs a little more time because apples have a lot of water in their composition and must be evaporated, to not seat as cake cools. |
