Brussels-style Waffles on a stick
This recipe makes 10 Brussels-style waffles on a stick using a suitable waffle maker.
To prepare:
Combine the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Add 3 egg yolks and gradually pour in 35 cl of milk followed by 80 g of melted butter. Beat the egg whites into stiff peaks, and gently fold into the batter, starting in the middle.
Preheat the waffle iron to 220 °C for 15 minutes.
Brush the irons with a light coat of oil. Use a ladle or jug to fill the irons on one side without overfilling. Close the waffle irons and lock into position using the handles. Turn the irons over immediately. After one minute of cooking time, insert the stick half way along the length of the waffle.
Cook in this position for 2 minutes and 45 seconds.
Open the waffle iron and remove the waffles using a waffle pick. It is best to place the waffles on a rack to prevent them from going soft.
