Instructions:
- Step 1: Preheat the Waffle Iron. Start by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Step 2: Whisk the Dry Ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk them together until evenly mixed.
- Step 3: Prepare the Wet Ingredients. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract. Add the egg yolks and whisk until well combined.
- Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Step 5: Whip the Egg Whites. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- Step 6: Fold in the Egg Whites. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter.
- Step 7: Cook the Waffles. Carefully pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the iron and cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, about 4-5 minutes.
- Step 8: Serve and Enjoy. Remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Make sure the baking powder is fresh for optimum rise.
- For extra flavor, consider adding spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
