Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, separated
  • 1 3/4 cups (420ml) milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil or melted butter
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • Blue food coloring (gel or liquid, 6-8 drops or as needed)
  • Pinch of cream of tartar (optional, for egg whites)
  • Maple syrup or honey (optional, for topping)
  • Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
  • Fresh berries (optional, for topping)
  • Sprinkles or candy eyes (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron to your preferred doneness level. Lightly grease with oil or spray if not nonstick.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, milk, oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract. Add blue food coloring, starting with 6 drops and whisking until you reach your desired shade.
  4. In a clean bowl, beat the 2 egg whites (with a pinch of cream of tartar, if using) until stiff peaks form.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined; some lumps are okay.
  6. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter in three batches, lifting and folding to keep the mixture light and airy. Stop as soon as no big white streaks remain.
  7. Ladle about 1/2 cup of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron (adjust as needed for your model). Close lid and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the waffle is puffed, golden at the edges, and lightly crisp.
  8. Transfer cooked waffles to a wire rack as you make the rest. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as whipped cream, syrup, sprinkles, or sliced fruit.

Notes

For best results, gently fold in whipped egg whites for extra fluffiness. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking. Use gel food coloring for the most vibrant blue. Waffles are best served fresh but can be frozen and reheated in a toaster or oven. For gluten-free or dairy-free versions, substitute with appropriate flour and milk alternatives.
