Waffles

Almost every morning my children ask me to make waffles.  My stepsister shared her family recipe with me and it makes light, fluffy, yummy waffles.  

 

Mix 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 1/4 cup coconut oil or canola oil (but I prefer coconut it makes them a little sweeter), 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1 Tbsp baking powder, 1 Tbsp sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp salt, and 4 egg yolks.

Then beat the 4 egg whites until they have soft peaks.

Fold the beaten egg whites into the batter.  It should be bubbly, which is what makes the waffles so light and fluffy. 

Then I bake them in this Waring Pro waffle maker that flips the waffle as you cook it.   

Some days the kids will eat two full waffles.  I love that they eat a good breakfast.
