Richard’s recipe for the best ever waffles guarantees a crisp exterior and a fluffy interior. This recipe brings back cherished breakfast memories.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, separated
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s directions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  5. In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter in two additions. This step adds the necessary air for fluffiness.
  7. Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown and crisp, usually 4 to 6 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For extra crispness, use a higher fat content milk.
  • Do not press down on the waffle iron lid while cooking.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, substitute half the all-purpose flour with cake flour.
