How to Make Belgian Waffles
- In a large bowl, sprinkle 2 ¼ teaspoons of active dry yeast over 1 cup of warm milk (105-115°F). Stir gently until the yeast dissolves.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large egg yolks and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Add this mixture to the yeast mixture and stir to combine.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ teaspoon of salt, and 1 cup of granulated sugar. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in ½ cup of melted unsalted butter and mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth.
- In a clean, dry bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter in three additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the batter rise in a warm place for 45-60 minutes, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Pour 1-1/3 cups of batter onto the hot waffle iron for each waffle. Cook until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve immediately, sprinkled generously with powdered sugar. Add fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate syrup, or maple syrup for extra deliciousness!
