The greatest waffle recipe I know of. These are very light and crispy (from the milk) and I think closely approximates those from Fat Apples in Berkeley, California ? where the waffles are undoubtedly the best on the planet.

1 3/4 cups flour
1 tbsp. baking powder
pinch salt
1 tbsp sugar
2 cups milk
3 eggs, separated
6 tbsp melted butter
cream of tartar

Get that waffle iron really hot.

Mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar, add milk, egg yolks and melted butter. Mix until very smooth. I use a KitchenAid for about 5 minutes.

While mixing, beat egg whites with a bit of cream of tartar. I do it in my food processor while the KitchenAid is working.

Fold the egg whites into the batter, LIGHTLY.

Cook the regular way on the waffle iron.
