Instructions

  • Mix wet and dry ingredients in separate bowls.  Beat eggs whites until they form peaks or at least are nice and frothy.  Combine wet and dry and then fold in egg whites. Let sit for a few minutes and then pour into waffle maker.  Feel free to get creative with additional flavors, spices, you can omit the vanilla and go savory with rosemary and thyme and asiago cheese, stuff the waffles by pouring half the batter and then placing a slice of cheese, ham and fried egg and pouring second half of batter and cooking waffle as usual.
