Indulge in the delightful aroma and taste of homemade waffles with this easy-to-follow recipe. These waffles are guaranteed to be fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside, making them a perfect breakfast treat for the whole family to enjoy.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of flour
- 1 1/2 cups of milk
- 2 eggs, separated
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
- 3 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 6 tablespoons of butter, melted
Instructions:
- Prepare the Batter:
- Begin by sifting the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder into a large mixing bowl. Sifting ensures a smooth and lump-free batter.
- Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, beat the egg yolks until they become pale and frothy. Then, gradually add the milk while continuing to beat the mixture.
- Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients:
- Slowly incorporate the sifted flour mixture into the beaten eggs and milk. Stir gently until all the dry ingredients are fully incorporated and the batter becomes smooth.
- Incorporate Melted Butter:
- Pour in the melted butter and mix until it is evenly distributed throughout the batter. The butter adds richness and flavor to the waffles.
- Whip Egg Whites:
- In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This step will add airiness and lightness to the waffles.
- Fold in Egg Whites:
- Carefully fold the beaten egg whites into the batter using a spatula. Be gentle to preserve the airiness of the egg whites.
- Cook the Waffles:
- Preheat your waffle maker according to its instructions. Once hot, pour the batter onto the waffle maker, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked, carefully remove the waffles from the waffle maker and serve them hot with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream.
- Bonus Tip:
- This batter also works wonderfully for making pancakes! Simply pour the batter onto a hot griddle or skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides.
