4-Ingredient Dutch Cream Waffles
Description
The 4-Ingredient Dutch Cream Waffles rely on a simple batter made by mixing flour and salt with a combination of egg yolks and heavy cream, which is then incorporated into stiffly beaten egg whites. This folding technique introduces air, resulting in a waffle that is both light and tender. Cooking in a preheated waffle iron produces a golden crisp outside with a soft crumb inside.
The recipe emphasizes a delicate balance between richness from the cream and a subtle egg flavor. The optional toppings such as powdered sugar, syrup, or fresh fruit can complement the waffled texture and slightly sweet base.
The batter should be handled gently to preserve the air bubbles from the egg whites, and waffles are best enjoyed fresh and warm. Variations suggested include adding vanilla and cinnamon for a flavor twist.
Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 egg separated
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- powdered sugar optional toppings
- syrup
- Fresh fruit
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. In a small bowl, beat egg yolks on low speed. Gradually pour in cream and beat for 1 minute. Add wet ingredients to flour mixture and mix until smooth.
- In another bowl (make sure your beaters are clean) beat egg whites on high until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into batter.
- Bake in a preheated waffle iron according to manufacturer's directions. Serve warm with desired toppings.
Notes
- For added flavor, consider mixing 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon into the batter.
- Serve the waffles immediately after cooking to enjoy their crisp texture.
