Sweet Biscuit Waffles
A variation of a centuries-old classic
waffle from Belgium.
Makes 12 waffles
2–3 ounces sweet biscuits, such as
arrowroot cookies
2
2
⁄3 cups lowfat milk
1
⁄4 cup unsalted butter
2 cups unbleached, all-purpose flour
1
⁄2 tablespoon baking powder
1
⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1
⁄2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, separated
Place biscuits in a large mixing bowl. Place milk
and butter in a small saucepan over medium low
and heat until butter is melted. Pour warm milk
and butter over biscuits and stir until they are
dissolved, about 1 minute. If the mixture still
appears very thick add another
1
⁄2 cup of milk so
that the mixture whisks easily. To the milk mixture,
whisk in flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar,
salt, and egg yolks until mixture is well blended
and smooth. Preheat your Cuisinart
®
Waffle Iron.
Whip egg whites to firm, but not dry, peaks using
an electric mixer. Carefully fold whites into batter
in two additions, using a large rubber spatula, until
the whites and batter are completely incorporated.
When iron is ready, the audible signal will sound
and green indicator light will illuminate. Pour
3
⁄4 cup batter on the center of lower grid;
spread batter using a heatproof spatula to within
1
⁄2 inch of the edge of the grid. Close lid of waffle
iron – green indicator light will turn off. When
audible signal sounds and green indicator light
turns on again, waffle is ready. Open lid and
carefully remove baked waffle. Repeat with
remaining batter.
