Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.75 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 Eggs, separated
- None None Cooking spray or melted butter (for waffle iron)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your waffle iron according to its manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, and egg yolks until well combined.
Step 4
In another clean bowl, use an electric mixer or whisk to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This will help make the waffles airy and light.
Step 5
Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined; do not overmix.
Step 6
Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the batter using a spatula until just incorporated. The batter should be light and fluffy.
Step 7
Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.
Step 8
Pour the appropriate amount of batter into the waffle iron (according to your model's recommendations) and spread evenly.
Step 9
Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, usually 4-6 minutes per waffle (depending on the waffle iron).
Step 10
Remove the waffles and serve immediately, or place them on a wire rack to keep their crispness. Avoid stacking them, as this can make them soggy.
