Ingredients
- 2 cups flour all purpose or plain
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 4 teaspoons baking powder aluminium-free
- ⅓ cup white granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 large eggs separated
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 cups milk
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Lightly grease your waffle iron plates with nonstick cooking oil spray. Preheat waffle iron following manufacturer's instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornstach, baking powder, sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
- Grab a medium-sized bowl and beat the egg whites with a hand beater until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- In a third bowl, mix the egg yolks with the oil, milk and vanilla extract. Pour the egg yolk mixture into the dry ingredients and mix well to combine.
- Gently fold in the egg whites, being careful not to overbeat the batter.
- Pour ¾ cup* batter into the hot waffle iron and cook according to manufacturer's directions. (We cook ours on medium-brown setting.)
- Place cooked waffle on a cooling rack to keep it crisp and repeat with remaining batter.
- Best served hot with butter, maple syrup or honey, powdered sugar, fruit conserves, chocolate syrup, ice cream, fruit, or any of your favourite toppings.

Notes
- My waffle iron requires ¾ cup of batter per waffle. Yours might need more or less. Please refer to your manual.
