Gaufres Authentic Belgian Waffles

---

A recipe so authentic that i had to convert from grams and translate from french! These waffles are rich and delicious (don't bother with syrup!), and the basic recipe is from a belgian friend of mine.

---

Steps

---

Separate the 4 eggs , adding the yolks to the sugar and setting the whites aside for later use.

---

Add the flour and butter to the yolk and sugar mixture , first by stirring and then by working the mixture into a uniform dough with your hands.

---

Beat the egg whites until they are fluffy: when you lift the beater from the whites , soft peaks should form and then fall back , not holding much shape.

---

Crumble the dough and drop the pieces into the egg whites.

---

Stir by mashing the pieces of dough into the whites with a spoon , then stirring until a uniform consistency is achieved.

---

Heat up a waffle iron.

---

When it is hot , drop the batter onto the iron in the desired serving size.

---

I usually get about 12 waffles roughly 4-5 inches in diameter from this recipe.
