Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs room temperature, separated
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted, plus more for brushing waffle iron

Instructions
 

  • Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg yolks, vanilla, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Take care not to over mix the batter.

  • Brush the inside surface of the iron with butter. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending upon the size of the iron. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Cover and cook until golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter. (If the waffle iron is well seasoned or nonstick it is not necessary to brush the inner surface each time before cooking the waffles.)
  • Serve the waffles immediately with syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
