What You Need:
1 C flour
1 T baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 T sugar
3 eggs (separated)
1 C milk
4 T vegetable oil
Either...
1 tsp vanilla
OR
1 tsp chile powder
1 can (4 oz) chopped green chiles
Your Turn:
Separate 3 eggs. Save the yolks in a small bowl and beat the 3 egg whites until they are stiff. This would be when they start to hold the shape of the beaters as you move the beaters around the bowl. Set the whites aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together
1 C flour
1 T baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 T sugar
Stir until blended.
Add
1 C milk
3 egg yolks
and stir until smooth.
Add
4 T oil
and here's where you choose your own adventure: Do you want breakfast waffles? If so, add 1 tsp vanilla. Do you want taco waffles to serve with taco toppings (taco-flavored ground beef, sour cream, salsa, chopped onions, shredded cheese)? If so, add 1 tsp chile powder and 1 can chopped green chiles. I have not explored other options here, but adding chocolate chips, toasted pecans, berries, bacon, or curry might all be yummy alternatives.
Mix well after you add your oil and choice of add-ins.
Add the egg whites and stir gently, just until blended.
Pour 3/4 C or so (use your waffle iron's instructions) onto the hot iron at a time and cook until golden brown. My iron has an indicator light to let you know when it's done. That's really handy.
Enjoy for any meal of the day! I can get 4 or 5 whole Belgian waffles out of this recipe, so I always put a few in the fridge and reheat in the toaster oven, which works great. (I would not recommend a microwave-reheat, though.)
