This simple buttermilk waffles recipe has been our favorite for decades. They are golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender and slightly sweet on the inside. When they're topped with melting butter, syrup, or fruit it's a special weekend meal that calls the whole family to the table.

Instructions


0 Separate the egg yolks from the whites, being careful not to get the yolk into the whites.
1 Beat the egg whites until still peaks form; set aside.
2 Mix dry ingredients together; set aside.
3 Beat the egg yolks with a fork.
4 Add the melted butter, egg yolks, and vanilla to the buttermilk.
5 Whisk to combine.
6 Add the buttermilk mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing well.
7 Gently fold in half the stiffly beaten eggs whites to lighten the batter.
8 Fold in the remaining stiffly beaten egg whites until there are no more white streaks.
9 Set aside while preheating the waffle iron. Resting allows the gluten to relax and the waffles will be more tender.
10 Spray the waffle maker with non-stick spray and add about 1/3 cup of batter (depending on the size of your waffle baker!)
11 Close and cook according to manufacturers&#039; instructions.
12 Waffles are done when the waffle iron stops steaming.
13 Serve immediately.
