Belgian Waffles, originating from Belgium, are crispy outside and fluffy inside, typically served with toppings like fruit, cream, syrup, or chocolate. They're made from a batter of flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, eggs, milk, butter, and vanilla. Egg whites are whipped separately for a light texture. Enjoy them with sweet or savory toppings. Though indulgent, they're best enjoyed in moderation.

Here is a step-by-step method for making Belgium Belgian Waffles:

Ingredients:

1- 2 cups all-purpose flour

2- 1 tablespoon baking powder

3- 1/2 teaspoon salt

4- 1/4 cup sugar

5- 2 large eggs, separated

6- 1 1/2 cups milk

7- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

8- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

2- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

3- In another bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

4- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

5- Gently fold in the beaten egg whites until just combined.

6- Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease with cooking spray.

7- Scoop the batter onto the waffle iron and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.

8- Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings.

Notes:

1- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in tough waffles.

2- If you prefer a sweeter waffle, you can increase the amount of sugar in the recipe.
