| Yield: | about 6 waffles |
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 1 large egg white, at room temperature
- 1 1/2 cups milk, at room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted, plus more for brushing the iron
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup mini-chocolate chips
- Serving suggestions: Maple syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt, or ice cream for dessert
Instructions
- Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Separate the 2 eggs and put all the whites in a large bowl.
- In a large liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks, milk, vanilla, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Whisk the milk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed. Take care not to over mix the batter.
- Whip the egg whites with a hand-held electric mixer or whisk, until they just begin to hold a loose peak. Scatter the sugar over the whites and continue beating until they hold a soft peak. Fold a third of the egg whites into the batter to lighten the base, then fold in the remaining whites. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Brush the inside surface of the iron with butter. Pour in enough batter to barely fill each hole of the waffle iron; the amount will vary depending upon the size of the iron. (Take into consideration that the batter will spread once the lid is closed.) Close and cook until crisp and the waffle iron stops steaming, about 5 minutes. Serve as the waffles come off the iron or transfer to a rack set on a pan in preheated 200 degree F oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- (If the waffle iron is well seasoned or nonstick it is not necessary to brush the inner surface each time before cooking the waffles.)
- Serve the waffles with syrup, jam, fresh fruit, or yogurt. Or turn into a dessert with a scoop of ice cream.

quick & tasty! my go to recipe
This looks absolutely delicious! I can’t wait to make these in the morning.
i actually forgot to add the sugar and everyone said they were great. i also used semi sweet chocolate morsels instead of chocolate chip…. i kinda messed up on this recipe lol but it came out great without no sugar…. i dont know how i missed it. but it wasnt sweet so if you miss the sugar it comes out great!!!
My waffles were very sweet and very good.
I don’t think they were sweet enough.
But it was very easy to make
But it was very easy to make
i wasn’t too extremely impressed with this recipe… however, overall, it is not bad.
I found these very easy to make and my boys loved them. I put the egg whites in my stand mixer and had them whipping while I assembled the rest of the ingredients, By the time the rest of the ingredients were mixed together, the egg white/sugar mixture was done, so I folded them in and started making the waffles. Very easy and very delicious. No more Eggo’s for us!
These were delicious, although my husband thought they were too sweet for breakfast. However, served with vanilla icecream and chocolate sauce would make a fantastic dessert.
Very easy to make and taste great! They were a hit with the family.
Even though I cut down on the amount of chocolate chips the recipe required, my kids thought these had too much chocolate in them. I think these are too rich for breakfast; they would probably be better served as a dessert with vanilla ice cream.
