Ingredients
Waffle Batter
- 2 large eggs separated
- 2 tbsp (25 g) granulated sugar
- 2 tsp (8 g) baking powder
- 1 3/4 cups (220 g) all-purpose flour sifted
- 1/2 tsp (3 g) salt
- 1 1/3 cups (320 ml) milk whole milk preferred (substitute almond or buttermilk as desired)
- 4 tbsp (57 g) unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly
- 1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
- 1 cup (150 g) blueberries fresh or frozen (rinsed and patted dry if frozen)
For Serving (optional)
- maple syrup
- whipped cream
- extra blueberries
Equipment
- Waffle Iron
- Hand Mixer
- Mixing bowls
- Whisk
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron and grease it lightly with melted butter or nonstick spray.
- Separate the eggs, placing yolks in a large bowl and whites in a clean mixing bowl.
- With a hand mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form and set aside.
- In the bowl with yolks, whisk together sugar, baking powder, flour, and salt (sift if you like for extra fluffiness).
- Add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the yolk mixture. Whisk gently until just combined (don’t overmix).
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Using a spatula, carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the batter in two additions, mixing gently to keep the batter light and airy.
- Pour batter onto the preheated waffle iron (do not overfill), close, and cook until deep golden and crisp at the edges, 4–6 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, and extra blueberries as desired.
Notes
If using frozen blueberries, rinse and pat them dry before folding into the batter to prevent blue streaks and soggy waffles. Store cooled waffles in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge or up to 2 months in the freezer—reheat in the toaster for best crispiness.
