Waffle Recipe
Description
The recipe starts with mixing dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt—and then adding a liquid mixture of milk, vegetable oil, and egg yolks. The batter remains slightly lumpy to avoid overmixing. Egg whites are beaten to stiff peaks and gently folded into the batter to lighten the texture, resulting in waffles with a soft interior and crisp edges when cooked in a preheated waffle iron.
The waffles can be served plain or topped with syrup, fruit, or other favorite accompaniments. The recipe is flexible and doesn't rely on elaborate ingredients or techniques, suitable for a classic breakfast or brunch.
Nutrition information may vary depending on ingredient brands used. Following the folding technique for the egg whites is key to achieving the right texture.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 egg separated
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
- In a small bowl (or I use a large liquid measuring cup) combine the milk, oil and egg yolks. Beat to break up the yolks and combine.
- Pour the liquid ingredients into the center of the dry ingredients. Stir just until moistened - the batter will still be lumpy.
- In another bowl, beat the egg whites until they have stiff peaks.
- Add about 1/3 of the stiff egg whites to the waffle batter and stir in in to combine and lighten the batter. Add the remaining egg whites and gently fold until no white streaks appear.
- Heat a waffle maker to high.
- Cook the waffles according to the directions on your waffle maker.
Notes
- Nutrition information is an estimate and can vary with different brands and products.
- Be careful not to overmix batter; keep some lumps for better texture.
