Ingredients

  • cup all-purpose flour (or Cup4Cup Gluten-Free)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs, separated
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1⅓ cups buttermilk
  • cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled (plus a bit extra for the waffle iron)
  • 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup Nutella

Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle iron.
  • Start the batter. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
    Separate the eggs and add the yolks to a medium-sized bowl, and the whites to another. Set the whites aside.
    Add the sugar, buttermilk, cooled melted butter and vanilla to the yolks and whisk to blend until smooth. Add this to the flour mixture and use a large spoon to blend.
  • Whip the egg whites. Use an electric mixer to whip the whites until stiff peaks form. Fold them into the batter. Do not over mix!
    Begin making the waffles immediately.
  • Cook the waffles. Lightly grease your waffle iron with a pastry brush with more melted butter (or neutral oil like vegetable).
    Drop about ⅓ cup of the batter onto the waffle iron. Quickly add about a tablespoon of Nutella on top, in the center. (The easiest way to do this is with a cookie scoop.) Then drop about a tablespoon more of the batter right on top of the Nutella, and use a small spoon or your fingers to spread it out a bit, to cover (or almost cover) it.
    Close the the lid lightly and cook until your waffle maker indicates it’s ready, about 5 minutes. You will know they’re ready when you no longer see steam. They should be light golden.
  • Serve and eat!
