Homemade Belgian Waffles

Top these fluffy Belgian waffles with some whipped cream and syrup for a morning breakfast they will love!

Ingredients :

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 eggs separated
  • 2 ½ cups buttermilk
  • ⅓ cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions :

  • Preheat the Belgian waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
  • Place dry ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine.
  • Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Place the egg whites in a clean bowl and beat with a hand mixer on medium high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes.
  • Combine the egg yolks with buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla.
  • Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture. Stir just until the mixture is moistened.
  • Gently fold in the egg whites. Do not overmix the batter, it should be slightly lumpy.
  • Lightly grease the waffle maker with vegetable oil. Add about ¾ cup of batter to the waffle maker and close the lid. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until the lid opens easily and the waffles are golden brown.
  • Repeat with the remaining batter.
