How to Make Belgian Waffles

To begin, preheat your waffle iron to the regular/standard setting.

Next, in a medium-size bowl, sift together 2 cups of flour, 3 teaspoons of baking powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ cup of sugar.

After, grab a clean, larger bowl, and proceed to add your 1½ cups organic milk, 2 egg yolks, and 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Whisk the wet ingredients together until they are well combined.

Next, in a small sauce pan, add both your 4 tablespoons of salted butter and 4 tablespoons of cannabis-infused butter. Turn the stove-top on low and melt the two butters together.

Once the butters are fully melted together, remove the sauce pan from the heat.

Then, slowly add the dry goods into the large bowl containing the wet ingredients – combine the dry with the wet in small batches, stirring after each batch until well combined.

After, pour the melted butter/cannabis-infused butter duo into the batter. Mix the waffle batter well once more to thoroughly combine.

Finally, in a new medium-size bowl, beat the egg whites with a whisk or electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

Once peaks have formed, slowly fold the whipped egg whites into the waffle batter and mix until the batter is just barely combined.

Scoop the batter into your waffle pan in small batches, and shut the waffle iron.

Cook the waffles until they are a deep golden-brown, and somewhat crispy on the outside!

Remove the waffle from the waffle iron, and serve immediately with your choice of garnishes.

Enjoy!
