  • 1 TB brown sugar packed
  • 1 TB granulated sugar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat waffle iron. In a large bowl, beat eggs with electric mixer until light and fluffy, 2-3 minutes on medium high.
  2. Using a hand whisk, gently whisk in all ingredients except for the flours until incorporated.
  3. Using a rubber spatula, fold in both flours just until no flour streaks remain. Do not over-mix.
  4. Lightly grease hot waffle iron with cooking spray and pour appropriate amount of batter onto hot waffle iron, according to manufacturer's instruction.*
  5. Allow waffle to cook until golden and crispy on the edges.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter, lightly greasing the iron each time. Serve warm with stabilized whipped cream, berries, and your choice of syrup.

Notes

  • The batter can be made the night before, covered, and chilled. Gently stir before using.
  • For most waffle irons: fill the iron to two-thirds full, close it to cook, and open when steam stops being emitted.

  • Beating the eggs until light and fluffy is the secret to these waffles' airy texture.
  • Gently folding in the flours is crucial for keeping the waffles light and tender. 
  • A preheated waffle pan ensures that the batter starts cooking immediately, leading to waffles with a crispy exterior.
  • Serve your waffles immediately or keep them warm in a 200°F oven while you finish cooking the rest. This will help them maintain their crispy texture.
