Grandma's waffles

Preparation

Melt the butter in a small saucepan until completely liquid. Separate the eggs and beat the egg whites. Mix the egg yolks with the sugar and add the melted butter and a dash of vanilla extract. In the warm saucepan, add a small splash of milk and water so it becomes lukewarm. Add this to the mixture as well. Fold the egg whites gently into the mixture until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and your batter is ready.

Preheat your waffle iron and prepare a small bowl with corn oil and a pastry brush for greasing. Also have a ventilated baking tray ready so your waffles can cool.

Grease the baking plates with the corn oil. Use a ladle to measure the right amount of batter for the waffles. Spread the batter over the baking plates and close the appliance. Turn the appliance upside down so the batter is evenly distributed over the plates. Bake the waffles until golden brown (2:30 min on setting 5).
