Ingredients
- 2 fresh eggs
- 1.5 cups fresh milk
- 60 g butter (melted)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 1 sachet vanilla sugar
- Decorating ingredients: powdered sugar, jam, chocolate topping or caramel topping (to taste)
Utensils needed
- 2 large bowls
- Electric mixer or hand mixer
- Silicone spatula
- Waffle maker
- Ladle
- Grater (optional to prepare toppings)
Step by step instructions
1. Separate the eggs: Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. Put the whites in a large bowl and the yolks in another bowl. Make sure the bowls are clean to get a good foam.
2. Beat the egg whites: Use the mixer to beat the egg whites until they become a stiff foam. This step is essential for fluffy waffles. When the foam is ready, set aside.
3. Mix the wet ingredients: In the bowl with the yolks, add the fresh milk and melted butter. Mix well with the mixer on low speed. Then add the powdered sugar, vanilla essence and vanilla sugar, continuing to mix until everything is well integrated.
4. Incorporate dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Then gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet, mixing with a mixer until smooth.
5. Add the egg whites: Use the spatula to add the beaten egg whites to the batter mixture. Do this gently, using up and down strokes, to keep the air in the whites and keep the waffles fluffy.
6. Waffle baking: Preheat the waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Use a lad ladle to pour the batter into the preheated appliance, making sure not to overfill as the waffles will expand. Bake for 3-4 minutes or until golden and crispy.
7. Serving: Once the waffles are done, carefully remove them and place on a cooling rack. Serve them warm, sprinkled with powdered sugar, alongside jam, chocolate topping or caramel topping, to taste.
Practical tips
- Quality of ingredients: Choose fresh eggs and high-quality milk for best results. Melted butter adds a rich flavor, but make sure it's not too hot when you add it to the mixture so as not to cook the yolks.
- Adjusting consistency: If the batter is too thick, you can add a little milk to thin it out.
- Delicious variations: You can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra flavor. You can also try replacing some of the flour with cocoa for chocolate waffles.
- Storing the waffles: If you don't manage to eat them all, the waffles can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. You can reheat them in the toaster to restore their crispness.
