How to Make Rich Belgian Style Waffles

  1. Preheat your waffle maker according to manufacturer's instructions.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients EXCEPT the egg white. Beat on low speed until just moistened.
  3. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat until the batter is completely smooth and creamy.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the egg white until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  5. Pour approximately 1/2 cup of batter onto the preheated waffle maker grids. Adjust amount depending on your waffle maker.
  6. Close the waffle maker and bake until the steam stops escaping and the waffle is golden brown and crispy. This usually takes 3-5 minutes, but check your waffle maker's instructions.
  7. Carefully remove the waffle using a fork or spatula.
  8. Garnish with your favorite toppings (fresh berries, whipped cream, chocolate chips, maple syrup) and enjoy!
