Description
Dad’s favorite breakfast: crispy, fluffy, buttery waffles made nutrient-dense with simple ingredients like whole wheat flour and buttermilk.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 2 Tablespoons Sugar
- ½ teaspoons Sea Salt
- 2 whole Eggs, Separated And At Room Temperature
- 2 cups Buttermilk, Room Temperature
- 6 Tablespoons Butter, Melted And Cooled Completely, Plus Extra For Greasing The Iron
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Preparation
Preheat waffle iron and grease with butter.
Combine dry ingredients in a large bowl and set aside.
In a medium size bowl, whisk egg yolks, buttermilk, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Pour into the dry and stir to combine.
In a small bowl, beat egg whites with a hand mixer or stand mixer on high until peaks form, about 1–2 minutes. Gently fold into the batter, being careful not to over-mix or deflate the fluffy air pockets.
Scoop spoonfuls of the batter onto the waffle iron and cook until golden brown on each side. Remove and cool slightly before serving.
Serve immediately with toppings and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. Enjoy!
