Whisking the egg whites separately makes these waffles light and airy!
Ingredients
- 3 eggs, separated
- 1 ¾ C Buttermilk
- 8 Tbsp (1 stick) Butter, melted
- ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 ¾ C AP Flour
- 1 ½ tsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- ½ tsp Salt
- ⅓ C Sugar
- Maple Syrup and Butter for serving
Instructions
- Preheat All-Clad waffle maker on medium high heat. Preheat an oven to 200° if you will need to keep the waffles warm before serving.
- In a large bowl, whisk together: flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar. Set aside. In another large bowl, whisk the egg yolks (reserve egg whites for step 4). Next whisk in the buttermilk and vanilla, blend well.
- Slowly add the flour mixture to the egg mixture; whisk together until smooth. (A hand whisk is perfect for this task, no mixer needed)
- In another bowl using an electric hand mixer, whisk the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Using a rubber spatula, fold 1 C of the egg whites into the batter, then careful fold in the remaining whites.
- Pour about ⅓C of batter into each well of the waffle iron and close the lid. Cook the waffle until golden brown and crisp, about 5 min.
- If you need to keep the waffles warm before serving, transfer the waffles to a wire rack set on a baking sheet in the preheated oven.
- Repeat to cook the remaining batter. Serve the waffles hot with butter and syrup. Makes twelve 4" waffles.
