{Light & Fluffy Waffles}

I love waffles, but I don't like how heavy they tend to be sometimes.

I thought the instructions in this recipe were a tad odd, 

but it really does result in a light and fluffy waffle!

Hope you try them out!!

4 cups flour

1 tsp. xanthan gum

1 & 1/2 cups sugar

2 tblsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

4 large eggs, yolks and whites separated

2 cups buttermilk (see note)

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup water

2 cups (4 sticks) butter, melted

2 tsp. vanilla

Whisk together dry ingredients in a large bowl; set aside. In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites on high speed until stick peaks form; set aside. In a separate bowl, combine egg yolks, buttermilk, milk, water, butter and vanilla. Add to dry ingredients and mix until combined. Gently fold in egg whites until well combined.

Cook according to directions on your waffle iron.

Enjoy!!

Note:

-If you don't have buttermilk on hand, just add 2 tblsp. lemon juice to 2 cups milk. Stir and let stand for 5 minutes.
