By TPMay

Ingredients

• SAUCE:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2-1/4 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1-2/3 cups milk
• 3 eggs, separated
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 2/3 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1/2 cup orange juice, divided
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk the milk, egg yolks and butter; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in blueberries.
In a small bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into batter.
Bake in a preheated waffle iron according to manufacturer’s directions until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, 1/4 cup orange juice and honey. Bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and remaining orange juice until smooth; gradually stir into berry mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve warm with waffles. Yield: 12 waffles (1-1/3 cups sauce).
Editor's Note: If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the batter.
