How to Make Best And Easiest Waffles

  1. In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder. Create a well in the center.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large egg yolks and 1 cup buttermilk until well combined. Pour this mixture into the well of the dry ingredients.
  3. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined. Melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter and stir it into the batter.
  4. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 2 large egg whites with a pinch of salt using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  5. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter in two additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  6. Cover the batter and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, for best results.
  7. Heat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Pour 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron.
  8. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.
  9. Serve immediately, topped with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, chocolate chips, syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar. Enjoy!
