Buttermilk Waffles

I got this recipe on foodblogsearch.com it is a very fun site to search. It as adapted from Cook's Illustrated which always makes me happy. These waffles are light and delicious. I can't get enough of them these days.

2 cups flour
2 Tbsp cornmeal
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 eggs separated
2 cups buttermilk
4 Tbsp butter, melted and cooled
Nonstick cooking spray

Start preheating your waffle iron. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, salt, and baking soda. In another mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolk with buttermilk and melted butter until combined.

Clean your whisk and beat the egg white to soft peaks.

Fold in the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredients, the batter will be quite thick. Then add the egg whites and gently fold them into the batter.

Spray your waffle iron with some nonstick spray and spread the batter onto the iron. Cook until the waffles are golden brown, about 2 - 5 minutes depending on your machine instructions.

For freezer toaster waffles, leave the waffles golden and slightly underdone. They can be frozen then popped into the toaster for a quick breakfast.
