1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

2 large eggs

1 pinch cream of tartar

3 Tbsp granulated sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 200 degrees and preheat an electric waffle iron. In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt, set aside. In a separate mixing bowl, using an electric hand mixer set on moderately high speed, whip together 2 egg whites along with cream of tartar until soft peaks form, then add in sugar and whip until firm and glossy peaks form, set aside. In another large mixing bowl, whisk together buttermilk, vegetable oil, melted butter, vanilla extract and 2 egg yolks until well combined. Add in dry ingredients and whisk just until combined then using a rubber or silicone spatula, add half of egg white mixture to waffle batter and fold. Then add remaining egg white mixture and fold just until combined. Cook according to waffle iron manufacturers directions. Once each waffle has been cooked, immediately transfer to a wire cooling rack and transfer cooling rack to preheated oven to rest while remaining waffles are being prepared. Serve immediately with maple syrup or other topping of choice.
