Homemade is always so much better than processed food! Kids always appreciate these! Beating the egg whites separately and folding them gently into the batter ensures a lighter, crispier waffle. Ingredients:
2 egg yolks |
2 cups milk |
2 cups flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/3 cup oil |
2 egg whites, stiffly beaten |
Directions:
1. Preheat your waffle maker and set oven temp to warm (so you can keep your waffles warm while the others are cooking).
2. Place all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.

4. Increase mixer speed to medium, mixing batter until smooth.
5. By hand, gently fold in the beaten egg whites.
6. Pour 1/2 cup (125 ml) of batter over the grids.
