There are waffles, and then there are Belgian waffles. Cook up the real deal at home with imported pearl sugar from Belgium and this simple recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 3 large eggs, separated
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
- ½ cup pearl sugar
- 1 pound strawberries, cut
- 1 pint blueberries
- Whipped cream
Preparation
Sift together both flours, salt, baking powder and baking soda into a work bowl.
Separately, combine egg yolks, buttermilk and vanilla extract and mix well.
In a different bowl, whip egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Mix together the dry and wet ingredients until just combined, then stir in the melted butter. When the butter is incorporated, fold in whipped egg whites in three stages. Then fold in pearl sugar.
Cook waffles in a Belgian waffle maker according to its instructions. When done, top waffles with fresh berries and whipped cream or your favorite jam or syrup.
