crispy and fluffy belgian-style waffles serve with berries and freshly whipped cream the ultimate weekend brunch start with the dry ingredients for the waffle better some all-purpose flour baking powder salt in a little sugar to sweeten things up measure out the flour baking powder in salt in sieve into a large mixing bowl lastly if the sugar is the crystals are too large to fit through the sieve falchion style waffles are traditionally made with the yeast better as the rising agent this produces very light and fluffy waffles but you do need to give the yeast time to develop more often than not these waffles are now made with baking powder instead which means they only take about a quarter of the time to make this recipe uses a tablespoon of baking powder which may seem like a lot but trust me it produces the best waffles press B on the outside in so light and fluffy on the inside if you would like the full recipe for these Belgian waffles it will be on my website as well as the full measurements listed in the information box below make sure to subscribe I'll have a few more delicious dessert recipes coming up soon including terma so thank you to everyone who has suggested it give the dry ingredients a quick mix through with a whisk so everything is evenly combined in set to the side along with baking powder is the rising agent for these waffles eggs are also used separate to medium sized free-range eggs placing the weights in a clean bowl in the yolks and with the dry ingredients the yolks will get mixed in with the rest of the wet ingredients to form the waffle better while the whites will get wet to stiff peaks unfold it and later within the equates incorporates so much air into the better but this does mean an extra step which takes time I think it's well worth the effort for the perfect waffles but if you are in a rush or you simply want to make these waffles as simple as possible you can skip this step and mix the eggs into the batter whole set the egg whites to the side will work those soon in the same bowl is the dry ingredients in the egg yolks measure our 1/3 of a cup of a neutral oil like vegetable or canola important you can substitute butter in place or something like coconut oil if you would prefer I like to use oil it's easy to use there's no need to melt like butter and I find it gives a bit of crunch to the waffles add some vanilla for taste in about 2 cups of whole milk again whole milk works best for these waffles but if you would like to substitute for skim or non-dairy you can to use a whisk to mix the waffle better to give it it'll be quite runny in lumpy this is perfectly okay just stop mixing as soon as you no longer see any dry flour seek the waffle better to the side while we work up the egg whites this is easiest with a hand mixer but if you don't have one you can do it by hand it'll just take quite a while longer whip the waves until they double in volume in form stiff peaks when you remove the beaters from the bowl the egg whites should hold their shape this should take about two to three minutes with a hand mixer or about five minutes if you're doing it by hand if you don't have the patience to whisk by here for five minutes just get them to the stage of being very frothy it still works perfectly let me know in the comments what your favorite thing to have the branches whether that's what you love to make at home or go out on the weekend and get eggs benedict is always my go-to with perfectly poached eggs but pancakes are also a good choice gently fold the whipped egg whites into the waffle better with the wooden spoon the better will become a lot thicker and have a very light and fluffy texture with the amount of air that is being incorporated exactly what you want for the best waffles this should make around five or six waffles so if you are cooking for less it's pretty easy to just hard the recipe although these waffles keep so well in the freezer they are great to have on hand for when you want something easy without having to do much cooking heat up your waffle iron preferably a Belgian waffle iron with a large grid pattern like the one I'm using these waffles are pretty good at not sticking with the oil that contained but you can still spray the waffle iron with a nonstick or brush it with a little melted butter scoop out the waffle better pour it into the center of the waffle iron close the lid and flip it if you offer lying can and leave to cook for about 5 to 10 minutes I can't tell you exactly what measurement to put into the waffle iron mine takes about three-quarters of a cup for the perfect waffle but your waffle iron may take a bit more or a little less ever play around with the amounts start with about half a cup and you'll soon work out how much you need I'm using a cup measurement for not filling it with the whole amount this works out to make about five or six waffles but yours may make a little more or a little less check the waffle halfway through after about four to five minutes you'll know it's cooked when it isn't even brown color inners crispy to the touch remove the waffle from the iron with some tongs in-seat to the side while you continue to make the remaining waffles the waffles are best served straight out of the iron while they're still hot in crispy if you would rather serve them all at once heat your oven to about 180 degrees Celsius or 350 Fahrenheit and place the waffles on a single layer on a cooling rack leave them in the oven while you continue cooking and they'll stay extra crunchy and perfect until you're ready to serve these waffles make the perfect weekend brunch when you have more time to cook I'm serving my waffles with freshly whipped cream berries a dusting of icing sugar in some maple syrup they go with just about anything banana bacon yogurt or for dessert chocolate and ice cream let me know what your favorite toppings for waffles
