Ingredients
  

  • for 4 Large Waffles:**
  • Dry Ingredients:
  • - 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • - 1/4 cup cornstarch - this is the crisp secret
  • - 2 tbsp sugar
  • - 1 tbsp baking powder
  • - 1/2 tsp salt
  • Wet Ingredients:
  • - 1 3/4 cups milk
  • - 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
  • - 2 large eggs separated
  • - 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. **Mix Dry Ingredients:** In one large bowl, whisk flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. **Add Wet Ingredients:** Add milk, oil, egg yolks, and vanilla to the same bowl. Whisk until just combined. A few lumps are okay. Do not overmix.
  3. **Whip Egg Whites:** In a separate small bowl, beat the 2 egg whites with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. This takes 2 minutes.
  4. **Fold Gently:** Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter using a spatula. Stop when no white streaks remain. This keeps them fluffy.
  5. **Cook:** Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high. Spray with non-stick spray. Pour 3/4 cup batter and cook 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crisp.
