Classic Belgian Waffles
Classic Belgian waffles have a crispy outside and are soft and moist on
the inside. Try these waffles with your favorite syrup or a topping, such as
fresh strawberries and freshly whipped cream.
Makes approx. 10 waffles
1½ cups water (375ml) (divided)
2¼ teaspoons (one packet) active dry yeast
¹/³ cup (5g) sugar
3 cups (300g) sifted flour
¼ teaspoon salt
3 large eggs, separated + 1 egg white
1½ cups (375ml) whole milk
8 tablespoons (15g) unsalted butter – melted and cooled
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Heat half of the water to lukewarm, 105°–110°F (40–45°C). Dissolve the
yeast in the water with a pinch of the sugar from the recipe; let stand 5 to
10 minutes, until the mixture begins to foam.
Put the flour and salt into a large bowl; stir to blend and reserve. Add the
egg yolks, one of the egg whites, and remaining sugar to the yeast
mixture; stir to blend. Add the remaining water, milk, melted butter, oil,
and vanilla; stir until the mixture is smooth. Stir the liquid mixture into the
flour mixture and beat until the mixture is smooth.
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Fold the egg whites gently into
the batter. Let the batter stand for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Preheat your Waring ® Belgian Waffle Maker on setting #5 or preferred
setting* (Ready light will illuminate when preheated).
Use the measuring cup to measure the batter and pour into the preheated
waffle grids. Use a heatproof spatula to spread the batter evenly over the
grids. Close lid and rotate waffle maker 180˚ to the right. Bake the waffles
until the Ready light turns off and then on again. Rotate waffle maker 180˚
to the left. Remove waffle and repeat until all batter is used. For best
results, do not open waffle maker during cooking process.
