Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Melt and cool the butter.
Whisk the sifted flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a small bowl, set aside.
Separate the eggs.
Beat the egg yolks with a hand mixer at medium-high speed for 1 minute.
Add the milk and dry ingredients, then mix at medium speed until well blended.
Add butter and mix at medium-high speed until blended.
In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Heat your waffle iron to desired temperature.
Carefully fold the egg white mixture into the batter. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites, but fold them together until the batter is light and fluffy.
Spoon batter onto waffle iron and cook.


Notes
All waffle irons are different. Ours is a Belgian type. This recipe produces 8 waffles using about ¾ cup of batter.
