Crunchy And Light Waffles For Two Recipes

CRUNCHY AND LIGHT WAFFLES FOR TWO

Steps:

• Heat a waffle iron.
• Mix the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar using a whisk to combine well.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in the microwave.
• Beat the egg yolk with a fork till fluffy, then add the milk and butter to mix.
• Combine the milk mixture with the dry ingredients.
• Using a hand mixer, beat the egg white to stiff peaks.
• Carefully fold the egg whites into the batter (a plastic scraper works well for this).
• Cook immediately on iron.

LIGHT AND CRISPY WAFFLES

Steps:

• Preheat traditional waffle iron to medium. Meanwhile, stir flour, Rice Krispies, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in large bowl. Whisk egg yolks, milk, vanilla, and oil together in medium bowl.
• With electric mixer or balloon whisk, beat egg whites in bowl to soft peaks. Pour milk mixture over dry ingredients and whisk until combined. Whisk in beaten whites until just combined. Do not overmix; a few streaks of whites should be visible.
• Pour 2/3 cup batter into center of preheated waffle iron and use back of dinner spoon to spread batter toward outer edges (batter should reach about 1/2 inch from edges of iron before lid is closed). Close lid and cook until deep golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately.

LIGHT, CRISP WAFFLES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200°F and heat the waffle iron.
• Mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl.
• Measure the buttermilk, milk, and vegetable oil in a Pyrex measuring cup; mix in the egg yolk and set aside.
• In another bowl, beat the egg white almost to soft peaks. Sprinkle in the sugar and continue to beat until the peaks are firm and glossy. Beat in the vanilla.
• Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and whisk until just mixed.
• Drop the whipped egg white onto the batter in dollops and fold in with a spatula until just incorporated.
• Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron and cook until the waffle is crisp and nutty brown (follow the manufacturer's instructions for timing at first and then adjust to your liking).
• Set the waffle directly on the oven rack to keep it warm and crisp.
• Repeat with the remaining batter, holding the waffles in the oven (don't stack them).
