- Melt butter in a batter bowl. Add buttermilk, egg yolks, and vanilla. Mix well with whisk.
- In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Turn on waffle iron so it is preheated.
- Sift flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and add to the batter bowl and mix well. Pour batter into a larger bowl, then add egg whites and fold into batter.
- Place 1⁄2 cup batter in waffle iron and bake to the color of your liking. (I like to make mine dark!) You can also make a bunch, then put them on a wire rack (to prevent them from getting soggy), and then place them in the iron again for extra crispy waffles!
