Servings: 6 waffles
Ingredients
For the waffles
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 2½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp granulated sugar
- 200 ml milk whole, skimmed or vegetable, at room temperature
- ½ tsp vanilla extract or vanilla essence
- 2 egg yolks at room temperature
- 120 g melted unsalted butter cooled to room temperature
- 2 egg whites at room temperature
- 100 g blueberries if they're big ones, cut them in half
For cooking
- Vegetable oil I used Canola
Serving options
- Maple syrup
- Butter
Instructions
For the waffles
- Mix the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder using a whisk.
- In another bowl, whisk together the milk, vanilla, butter and egg yolks. When separating the eggs, transfer the yolks straight into the milk so that it doesn't generate a skin, which happens when it's in contact with air.
- Make a hole at the centre of the dry ingredients and pour the liquids into it. Whisk them together starting at the centre and slowly incorporating the dry ingredients from the sides.
- Whip up the egg whites in a clean using an electric mixer or by hand with a clean whisk until you get soft peaks.
- Incorporate the egg whites by folding them in using a spatula. First, fold in half of the egg whites, and then the rest.
- Fold in the blueberries.
For cooking
- Preheat the waffle iron for about 5 minutes.
- Once hot, paint it with oil, making sure to go into the crevices.
- Place about ¼ cup of dough onto the waffle iron and close it up. The exact amount will depend on the size of your iron. It will take 4-5 minutes to be ready. Don't open it up before this time or it will open in half. If you're using a stove-top waffle iron, it's 2 minutes per side over medium heat.
- Once they're done you can freeze them for up to 3 weeks. Place them in a sealed container with baking paper between them so that they don't stick. To reheat them place them in the toaster!
For serving
- Serve warm with butter and syrup.
