Light Waffles Made with Meringue
I don't really like waffles made with yeast or baking powder in the batter, as they're quite heavy.
Make a big batch of these when you have time and store in the freezer for a hassle-free treat anytime (defrost in a toaster oven for a few minutes at 750 W).
Make sure to use fresh eggs for the meringue, and whip until the peaks are stiff.
Adjust the cooking time and temperature according to your waffle maker.
If making rectangular waffles as in Step 5, this recipe will yield about 6 waffles. If making small, round ones as pictured above, you should get 7-8. Recipe by Setsubunhijiki

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Soften the butter in the microwave and leave to cool slightly. Sift the cake flour.
- 2
Separate the eggs. Make meringue by whisking the egg whites, adding the sugar gradually until stiff peaks form.
- 3
In a separate bowl, beat the egg yolks and whisk in the melted butter a little at a time. Then add the milk and the sifted flour, and mix gently.
- 4
Add in the meringue from Step 2 and carefully fold it in with a rubber spatula.
- 5
Cook in a waffle maker. (I set my waffle maker to the medium setting and cooked for 3-4 minutes.)
- 6
NOTE: Increasing the sugar to 50 g will produce deliciously sweet waffles that are great even without a topping (however, they'll be soft and moist as opposed to crunchy).

Recipe Photo The waffle pictured was dusted with powdered sugar and served with lightly whipped fresh cream (100 ml heavy cream, 1 tablespoon sugar, vanilla essence) and pineapple.

Homemade 'Waffles' Homemade 'Waffles'
I was hungry. I wanted waffles. I did not have a waffle iron. I made my waffles in the SANDWICH MAKER. It came out thin as a cracker. And it was good. And I really liked it. When they're thin it's more like a snack than a breakfast/lunch. I'm hungry again today. And I'll make waffles again. Try it. I promise you'll love it.

My Simple Butter-Free Waffles My Simple Butter-Free Waffles
I wanted to be able to make waffles even when I don't have a lot of time, so I came up with this recipe.It's the second recipe in my waffle series.You should definitely use pearl sugar or waffle sugar, granulated sugar etc. It really enhances the flavor and the crispiness. Just use a generous sprinkling of regular sugar if you don't have any of these special sugars on hand.When they cool down, lightly heat them back up in the toaster-oven and they'll taste good. For 8 waffles. Recipe by mio*.
