WAFFLE JOY OF COOKING RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• I just use all-purpose flour, but I sift or whisk it before measuring. Combine all dry ingredients and re-sift or whisk. In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks and add the butter (I used 3 tablespoons; the more oil, the more crisp the waffle), milk, and vanilla.Combine with a few swift strokes. The batter will be slightly lumpy, like muffin batter. If you want to add anything like nuts or chocolate chips to the batter, now's the time. 1/2 cup is about right for most additions. Beat the egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Fold them into the batter until barely blended. Cook according to your waffle maker's instructions. On mine that's about three minutes, or until steam stops coming out. Makes 12 4" square waffles. Oh, the vanilla is my own addition, and not part of the original recipe. I just like it in my waffles and pancakes. If you're holding your waffles instead of eating them right out of the waffle maker and want to keep them crisp, warm your oven to 200°F and put the waffles on wire racks instead of a tray or plate.
