Ingredients
5 servings
- •2 eggs, separated
- •0.25 cup white sugar
- •1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
- •0.25 cup water
- •3 tablespoons butter, melted
- •1 cup buttermilk
- •1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- •0.25 teaspoon ground cardamom
- •1 pinch salt
Instructions
- Place egg yolks into a large mixing bowl with white sugar; beat until light and frothy. Mix in vanilla sugar and water until evenly combined; stir in 1/2 of the melted butter, 1/2 of the buttermilk, and 1/2 of the flour. When mixture is smooth, mix in remaining butter, buttermilk, flour, cardamom, and salt; beat again until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until they form stiff peaks; gently fold egg whites into batter, incorporating as much volume as possible.
- Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
- Spoon about 1/3 cup of batter into the preheated waffle iron, close the lid, and cook until the waffle is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove waffle to a plate. If using a heart-shaped iron, break the waffle into individual hearts to serve. Repeat with remaining batter.
