- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup whole milk 250 ml

Instructions
- Beat egg whites: Separate the eggs. Whisk egg white with a pinch of salt until stiff. Set aside.3 eggs + 1 pinch salt
- Beat: Place the soft butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, or vanilla extract into another bowl, mix until creamy. Add the egg yolks and mix well until the sugar is dissolved.½ cup unsalted butter/ 125 g + ⅓ cup sugar/ 75 g + 1 tablespoon vanilla sugar OR ½ teaspoon vanilla extract + egg yolks

- Stir in the water. Carefully fold in the stiff egg whites.½ cup sparkling water/ 125 ml + egg whites
- Bake the waffles according to the directions of your waffle maker. My waffles took about 6-7 minutes to become crisp and nicely browned on the outside while remaining soft and fluffy on the inside.
- Temperature: My waffle maker also has different temperature settings and I prefer using a medium-high one, for instance, 4 or 5 out of 6 temperature settings. But that is a matter of personal taste; adjust the temperature setting accordingly.
- Bake: Pour some batter into the waffle iron, regarding the instructions of the waffle maker again. Close the waffle maker and bake until the waffle is golden.
- Time: Usually, the waffle makers will have a way of letting you know that the waffle is ready, either a (green) light or it will make some sound. But that depends on the waffle iron you are using.
- Keep the waffles warm in the oven at 200°F/ 100°C until you are finished with baking.
- Serve the waffles warm with cherry sauce and whipped cream or as suggested above.
