Ingredients

2 cups Flour

1 tablespoon Baking Powder

1/2 teaspoon Salt

2 tablespoons Sugar

2 piece Eggs (separated)

1 2/3 cups Milk

2/3 cup Melted butter or oil

Preparation

Instructions Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer’s directions.

Place flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a bowl. Whisk to combine.

In a small bowl, mix egg yolks, milk and butter. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with a mixer on medium high speed until stiff peaks form. *see note

Add egg yolk to flour mixture and stir to combine. Fold in egg whites

Drop by large spoonfuls onto greased waffle iron, close the lid and cook about 3-5 minutes.

Recipe Notes Beating the egg whites and folding them in makes the fluffiest waffles. This recipe can be made without beating the egg whites as well. If you do not beat the egg whites, reduce milk to 1 1/2 cups and add whole eggs to the butter mixture

To make buttermilk waffles, reduce baking powder to 1 1/2 teaspoons and add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. Replace milk with buttermilk.
