How to make it

  • Sift flour and measure again. Yes please do this to ensure you have the exact amount of flour...even pre-sifted flour should be sifted...
  • OK, now that we got that out of the way....
  • Measure flour once again and place into sieve one more last time (I promise) and add baking powder, salt, sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon.
  • Sieve one last time as promised into bowl.
  • Add cornmeal to flour mixture and stir with whisk or spoon till all is combined.
  • With egg whites separated, place them in mixer or by hand mixer or by hand if you think you got what it takes, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry, set aside momentarily.
  • Beat egg yolks and add whole milk and melted shortening (butter preferred) and vanilla extract.
  • Pour beaten egg yolks into flour mixture and stir to moisten the dry ingredients and incorporate the ingredients.
  • Fold in egg whites which have been beaten stiff gently into now wet mixture.
  • You are now ready to make your waffles.
  • Do yourself a favor and preheat that waffle iron - haven't used it in awhile? Then baste waffle irons lightly with butter or shortening.
  • Serve hot waffles with your favorite topping such as shaved maple sugar, butter, syrup, whipped cream ok You get the idea now...
  • Just eat while they are hot, will ya?!?

    " It was not good "

    There was just way too much cornmeal in this recipe. I am going to try one that has a more even ratio of cornmeal and flour. They were way to gritty.

    Made waffles (if you should have any extras) can be frozen - perfect for lightly toasting and having on another day. And for teen kids on the go...
    Now Leggo my homemade waffle! It doesn't have the same kind of ring to it, does it? lol But at least you know what's in your waffles: good loving and fresh ingredients!
