Ingredients
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder, (do not substitute with baking soda)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs, (separate egg yolks from egg whites)
- ½ cup unsalted butter or vegetable oil, (melted and cooled down to just above room temperature)
- 1½ cups milk
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- maple syrup
- margarine
- pecans
- fresh fruits
- chocolate syrup
Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mix all the dry ingredients: flour, salt, sugar, cinnamon, and baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, separate egg whites and beat to stiff peaks. To check, lift up your beater, if you get a nice peak and it holds its shape, that it's a stiff peak.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the wet ingredients: egg yolk, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Stir lightly.
- Add the mixed dry ingredients into the mixed wet ingredients and mix well. Then fold in egg whites.
- Spray preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray. Cook in the waffle iron for about 4-5 minutes at medium-high heat or until golden brown or follow the instructions on the product packaging. Don't be afraid to adjust the time and temperature until you get the right degree of doneness or texture.
- Serve with maple syrup, banana, and berries or any toppings of your choice.
