Waffle Morning


We LOVE Saturday mornings in our house because we get GREAT breakfasts!! Mommy actually has a little time to cook them and daddy is (usually) home (if he's not fishing!) So this morning we had DELICIOUS waffles.


Waffles are Lanee's all-time favorite breakfast food, so we try and spoil him every once in awhile.


This recipe is the very best I've ever had and super easy!! Sometimes we do the bisquick ones, but they don't even compare to these. Top them with whipped cream and strawberries for an extra yummy treat!!
INGREDIENTS

2 egg yolks
5 tablespoons white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 3/4 cups flour
2 cups warm milk
2 egg whites
DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, beat together egg yolks and sugar. Beat in vanilla extract, butter, salt and baking powder. Alternately mix in flour and milk until blended well.

In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until they have formed soft peaks. Fold egg whites into batter. You can let the batter set up to 40 minutes to help prepare the batter.....but seriously my family does NOT have patience, so I don't usually do this step.
For crispier waffles (which we like) don't spray your waffle skillet with oil spray.
Pour mix onto hot waffle iron. Cook until golden brown and fluffy.
