Ingredients:
- 250g flour
- 200ml milk
- 125 ml water
- 4 eggs, separated in yolks and whites
- 100g molten butter
- 50g of sugar
- 20g fresh yeast (or dry yeast equivalent)
- 1 bag of vanilla sugar (+-5g)
- a pinch of salt
- Sieve the flour into a deep mixing bowl, and mix the flour with the vanilla sugar, milk and the molten butter.
- Put 5g of the sugar and the water in a small pan on the stove, and warm until tepid (body heat). Add the yeast. Make sure the liquid is not over body heat, otherwise you'll kill the yeast.
- Mix the yeast water and the egg yolks into the batter.
- Whisk the egg whites with the sugar until you get a stiff foam. Use an electric mixer, it's easiest.
- Carefully, without stirring too much, fold the egg white foam and the salt into the batter.
- Put a wet cloth on the mixing bowl and let the batter rise for an hour in a warm place.
- Make a waffle iron hot, and butter it. Put in the batter, not more that 2/3s full, and bake the waffle for about 6 minutes. Don't pinch the iron so the dough can rise whilst baking.
- Serve with powder sugar and fruits.
