Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 tablespoons baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.75 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, separated
- 0 as needed nonstick cooking spray or melted butter
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and egg yolks until smooth.
Step 4
In another clean bowl, using a hand mixer or a whisk, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
Step 5
Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine.
Step 6
Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter using a spatula. This step will make the waffles light and fluffy.
Step 7
Lightly grease the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray or melted butter before cooking each batch.
Step 8
Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, filling it evenly but taking care not to overfill.
Step 9
Cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, following the waffle iron's instructions (usually 4-5 minutes per batch).
Step 10
Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
Step 11
Repeat with the remaining batter, re-greasing the waffle iron as needed.
