• 3½ tsp baking powder
• 2 large eggs, whites and yolks separated
• 1½ cups whole milk
• 1 cup salted butter, melted

DIRECTIONS

1. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and baking powder. In another bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks. Add the milk, butter, and vanilla to the yolks. Mix well until combined.

Use rubber spatula to gently fold the stiff egg whites into waffle batter, just until combined. Do not over mix. Let batter rest 10 minutes while you preheat the waffle iron.
