Directions

In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in ¼ cup warm milk. Let sit until creamy and foamy, about 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks, ¼ cup warm milk, and melted butter.
Stir in the yeast mixture, sugar, salt, and vanilla.
Gradually alternate adding the remaining 2 ½ cups warm milk and flour, ending with flour. Mix until smooth.
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold into batter.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Preheat waffle iron and lightly brush with oil.
Pour about ½ cup batter (or manufacturer’s recommendation) into center.
Close lid and cook until steaming stops and waffles are golden brown.
Enjoy immediately with your favorite toppings or keep warm in a 200°F oven.

Recipe Note

Chef Tips

For extra crisp waffles, cook slightly longer until deep golden brown.
Let the batter rise fully for maximum fluffiness.
Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm spice twist.

Serving Suggestions

Classic: Butter and maple syrup
