How to Make George Washington's Rice Waffles

  1. Preheat your waffle iron.
  2. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, and melted butter until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until just smooth. 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 batter, along with the cooked rice.
  7. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the preheated waffle iron for each waffle.
  8. Cook according to your waffle iron's instructions, until golden brown and crispy.
  9. While the waffles are cooking, prepare the honey-maple syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the honey, maple syrup, caraway seed, cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of butter.
  10. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and the mixture is warmed through. Do not boil.
  11. Serve the waffles immediately, drizzled generously with the honey-maple syrup.
  12. Enjoy!
