Susan Nickerson's Waffles

 I lived with Susan, Mary and Steve in Victoria in 2002 while I was doing my PhD at University of Victoria.  A highlight was when Susan would make these waffles. I think the secret of their exceptional lightness is that she whipped the egg whites separately and folded them into the batter last. Try it! 


Ingredients

1 3/4 cups of flour

2 tsp baking powder

1 tbsp sugar

1/2 tsp salt

3  eggs separated, whip the egg whites

1 1/2 cups milk (Susan uses butter milk and adds a bit extra)

1/3 cup canola oil 


Method


Sift the dry ingredients together. Add milk, egg yolks and oil.  Whip the egg whites and fold them in last. 

Use lots of maple syrup, fresh strawberries or blueberries. Whipping cream is also an option!
