Enjoy hotel-style breakfast at home with these easy-to-make, crispy homemade waffles. Perfect for a sweet and indulgent start to your day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 large eggs, separated
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch (for extra crispness)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and cornstarch.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the waffle batter.
  7. Lightly grease your waffle iron if needed. Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron, using the amount recommended by your iron’s instructions.
  8. Cook until golden brown and crispy, typically 3-5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
  9. Carefully remove the waffle and serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For extra crispy waffles, ensure your waffle iron is fully preheated and don’t overcrowd the iron with batter.
  • You can add a pinch of cinnamon to the dry ingredients for a warm spice note.
  • Leftover batter can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, but the waffles may not be as fluffy.
