Ingredients:
Quantity | Ingredient |
---|---|
2 cups | Milk |
2 cups | Flour |
2 tsp | Baking Powder |
1 tsp | Salt |
1/2 cup | Melted Butter |
1/3 cup | Sugar |
2 | Eggs (separated) |
Instructions:
-
Preheat Waffle Maker: Preheat your waffle maker and set the oven temperature to “warm” so you can keep your waffles warm while the others are cooking.
-
Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine milk, flour, baking powder, salt, melted butter, sugar, and egg yolks.
-
Beat Egg Whites: Using hand-held electric beaters, beat the egg whites on low until moistened. Then increase mixer speed to medium, mixing until smooth.
-
Fold in Egg Whites: Gently fold in the beaten egg whites by hand until well incorporated into the batter.
-
Cook Waffles: Pour 1/2 cup (125ml) of batter over the preheated waffle grids. Close the waffle maker gently and bake until steam no longer escapes, about 3-5 minutes.
-
Keep Warm: Remove waffle with a fork and place it on a baking sheet to keep warm in the oven while you cook the remaining waffles.
-
Garnish and Serve: Garnish the waffles as desired and serve them hot!
Variations:
-
Pecan or Macadamia Nut Waffles: Sprinkle 1 tablespoon (15ml) of finely chopped nuts (your favorite) over preheated waffle grids. Pour 1/2 cup of batter over nuts and cook as directed.
-
Bacon Waffles: Cook bacon strips separately. Pour 1/2 cup of batter over grids, then lay one bacon strip cut in half over the batter and close. Bake as directed.
-
Cheese Waffles: Fold 1 1/2 cups (375ml) shredded cheddar cheese into the batter. Bake as directed.

Blueberry Waffles: Fold 2 cups (500ml) fresh blueberries into the batter. Pour 3/4 cup (200ml) of batter over the grids and bake until golden.
