Whipping up our waffles recipe might be the most rewarding way to start a day. Dust off your waffle maker, stir the batter, fold in the egg whites and get cookin’! The included cinnamon cream syrup recipe is optional but oh, so recommended.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 2 cups 2% milk
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • CINNAMON CREAM SYRUP:
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 can (5 ounces) evaporated milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Mixed fresh berries, optional

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Combine the egg yolks, milk and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. In a small bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form; fold into batter. Bake in a preheated waffle maker according to manufacturer's directions.
  2. Meanwhile, for syrup, combine sugar, corn syrup and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in the milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Serve with waffles, with fresh berries if desired.

A friend shared this fluffy waffle recipe with me a few years ago. The cinnamon cream syrup is a nice change from maple syrup, and it keeps quite well in the fridge. Our two children also like it on toast. —Amy Gilles, Ellsworth, Wisconsin
