How to make?
Ingredients
6 1/2 ounces all-purpose flour
1 1/2 ounces powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
14 ounces cultured lowfat buttermilk
1 1/2 ounces unsalted butter, melted
2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Maple syrup, for serving
Directions
In a large bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and the scrapings of one large vanilla bean, mixing by hand until the seeds are well dispersed. Add buttermilk, melted butter, egg whites, and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth.
Set waffle iron to medium and preheat until the indicator is ready. For an 8-inch square machine, scrape in roughly half the batter. For a 7-inch Belgian machine, scrape in about one-third. Close lid and cook until waffle is golden brown but still steaming, 4 1/2 to 6 minutes depending on the depth and heat of your machine. Serve immediately, with copious amounts of maple syrup, and griddle remaining batter as before.
