Belgian Waffles
Belgian waffles made with a batter of flour, baking powder, separated eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla yield waffles with a light, airy texture and a slightly crisp exterior. The beaten egg whites folded into the batter provide volume and fluffiness. Cooking in a preheated waffle maker produces characteristic deep pockets ready to hold toppings like syrup or fruit.
