Waffles - Pioneer Woman

By srumbel

Anyway, next time you have a hankering for waffles, fire up the waffle iron and give these beautiful babies a try. (If you don’t have a waffle iron, you can thin the batter with just a little milk and make pancakes.)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the waffle iron to the regular setting.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl.

In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, 2 egg yolks, and vanilla. Pour over the dry ingredients and very gently stir until halfway combined. Pour in the melted butter and continue mixing very gently until combined.

In a separate bowl (or using a mixer), beat the egg whites with a whisk until stiff. Slowly fold them into the batter, stopping short of mixing them all the way through.

Scoop the batter into your waffle iron in batches and cook according to its directions (lean toward being a little deep golden and crisp!) Remove and serve immediately with softened butter and warm syrup.
