Airy waffles

Cookinero 4 Apr 2025

It is easy to make airy waffles in an electric waffle iron. To do this, use butter, do not replace it with margarine or spread. The higher the quality and more natural the product, the tastier the waffles will be. For fluffy and crumbly waffles, use carbonated water, which will replace yeast in the dough. The secret of soft and airy waffles is in the way you add eggs to the dough. You need to add the whites separately from the yolks. It is better to beat the whites at the highest speed of the blender.

How to cook Airy waffles

Step 1

Airy waffles

Start kneading the dough. Place soft butter in a deep bowl, add sugar and vanilla and mix until smooth. Use a mixer for this, beat the mixture for 1-2 minutes at low power.

Step 2

Prepare the eggs and mix the dough. Add the yolks to the butter and mix thoroughly. Gradually pour in the flour mixed with baking powder, stirring constantly. Add the yogurt at room temperature. Then beat the whites in a separate container with a mixer at high speed until fluffy and add to the dough. Mix the finished dough with a mixer at low power to fill it with oxygen.

Step 3

Pour the batter into the waffle iron. Grease the waffle iron plates with vegetable oil and heat the device for about 10 minutes. Pour 2 tablespoons of batter onto each plate, smooth it out over the form and close the waffle iron. Do not pour in more batter, otherwise it will spill out. If you pour in less, the waffles will be very small.

Airy waffles - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can replace yogurt with an equal amount of sour cream, buttermilk, or even milk mixed with a teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar for a similar tangy effect and moisture.
Use a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend instead of regular flour, and ensure your baking powder is gluten-free for safe consumption.
It's best to bake immediately after mixing the batter since the airiness comes from whipped egg whites, which may deflate if left too long. Stir gently if you must store it briefly.
Cool waffles completely, then store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Reheat in a toaster for crispiness.
Absolutely! Freeze in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Reheat in a toaster or oven straight from frozen.
Replace eggs with flax eggs (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water per egg), use dairy-free yogurt, and swap butter for coconut oil or vegan butter.
Overmixing the batter after adding the egg whites can deflate them. Fold gently just until combined, and ensure your waffle iron is properly preheated.
Yes, but the texture will be different. Spoon onto a griddle over medium heat for thicker, pancake-style results, though they won’t be as light as waffles.
Try fresh berries and whipped cream for a classic twist, or go savory with fried chicken and maple syrup. Nut butter and banana slices also work well.
