Hi guys, I'm Laura Vitale and on this episode of Laura in the Kitchen, I want to share with

you, my sort of, take on Belgian waffles.

Now, I have made some plain old regular waffles here before on Laura in the Kitchen, but I

did mention in that video, that for me, Belgian waffles and regular waffles are a bit different.

Belgian waffles have a yeast dough and regular waffles don't.

Now I know that there's a lot of - you know - mixed feelings about what's a Belgian waffle

and what's not, and I would love to hear your take on it, especially if you're from Belgium,

if this is anything like the waffles you have there.

I don't know, I've never been there, but for years now, these are what I make and I think

They have an amazing texture, they taste delicious and I promise you they are worth every bit

of the effort, which really there's hardly any effort that goes into it, they're really,

You're going to start off with some cake flour, I've got cake flour here, I've got a pinch

of salt, I've got a couple of eggs that I've separated into whites and yolks.

I've got some granulated sugar, a little tiny bit of sugar there with some active dry yeast,

vanilla extract, melted butter and whole milk that's been warmed up to 115 degrees Fahrenheit.

Now the first thing I'm going to do is take my yeast and a little bit of sugar. I'm going

to pour that - or sprinkle that I should say, over the milk, and I'm going to just let that

sit aside there so that the yeast can foam up a bit and activate.

Now, before we go any further, I do want to point out that this has to kind of rest for

about an hour, but you can make this batter the night before and instead of letting it

rise on your counter for an hour, just wrap it really well with plastic wrap, stick it

in the fridge overnight, and it will do a slow cold rise. It's not really going to rise

a whole lot, but it'll do the job just as well as if you were to wait an hour on the

It makes life a lot easier that way you can have homemade Belgian waffles at any second

in the morning without having to wait an hour for the dough to rest, so keep that tip in

mind for your weekend brunches, or breakfast, and whatnot.

I'm going to use a handheld whisk and I'm going to whisk together my egg whites until

they're really light and frothy and have a nice stiff peak.

My egg whites are nice and frothy, I'm going to set those aside for just a minute, my yeast

as you can see, is just gorgeous. I mean, this might not look gorgeous to a lot of people,

but when I see yeast activated, I get really happy because I know that whatever I'm making

is going to turn out to be wonderful. Because when you're working with yeast, just remember

that you can kill it if the liquid is too hot or if it's too cold it won't activate.

And you also want to make sure it's not expired.

Okay, to that I'm going to add in the rest of my sugar.

Everything's better with butter. Isn't it though?

I did just make that up in my head, but isn't it? I mean come on!

Take my little handy dandy half moon whisk, whatever you want to call it, and just whisk

these together to combine. Don't worry if it's not perfect because we are going to be

I just want to get every little bit of everything out.

And I am just going to whisk these with that same whisk, I mean why not, I'll probably

just switch to a spatula anyway. Just going to whisk this until combined.

We want a lot of bubbles, we want a really light, lovely texture on the outside, beautiful

Just fold them until combined, and then you're good to go to let them rest for a bit - well

Going to cover this with some plastic wrap and I'm going to set it somewhere to let it

Now this is the point where you've made your batter, cover it, pop it in the fridge until

But, since I want to eat waffles for dinner, I am just going to let these sit out - let

THIS sit out for about an hour or so to relax, I'm going to get my waffle iron ready, and

also make sure that whenever you're making something like a waffle iron or a panini maker

or any kind of machine, I guess, keep the manufacturer's instructions because it's going

to vary from mine to yours. So my manufacturer says, you know, they're going to cook in about

three minutes, yours might say they'll need about eight minutes, so keep the instructions

on hand at all times with each little device you have - each little machine you have - so

that you have all the information on how to pre-heat it and all that stuff.

Anyway, just going to let this rest and then we'll get going on making the waffles.

I've got my waffle iron preheated, and I have it sprayed with a little bit of spray.

Now, I'm just going to take my little ladle.

Let me just put little tiny dots, it'll - mine takes, to be honest, I don't even know the

amount of dough mine takes, or batter. I'd say maybe a quarter to a third of a cup each.

Something along those lines, and I am making a mess while I'm at it, but that's okay.

Going to put the lid on and let this cook until it turns green and it's ready to be

- they're ready to be taken out and I'm going to continue to cook them. I'll show you what

they look like when they're done and when they're ready to be served.

Now, quick tip for you:When you take waffles off of - or out of your waffle iron - make

sure that you place them on a wire rack so that they can cool all around. That way the

bottoms don't get soggy, they stay with a really nice texture.

That's okay. I'll put that one on my personal plate.

Now, if you want to do what I do what I do, tonight, for example, there's just Joe and

I for dinner. Just my husband and I for dinner, so we're just going to have a couple each

and I'm going to take the rest and I'm going to freeze them in Ziploc bags and then whenever

you want homemade waffles, pop it in the toaster, little maple syrup or butter, or whatever

you like, and you've got great homemade Belgian waffles anytime you want!

I like to serve mine with some fresh berries, I've got some strawberries here that I quickly

chopped up so that I can give myself a little taste.
