Geniune Belgian Waffles

4 eggs, separated
1 c. milk
5 tbsp. butter, melted
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 c. flour (all-purpose)
1 tbsp. sugar (optional)
1/2 tsp. salt

With an electric or hand mixer, beat egg whites to a stiff peak. Set egg whites aside. Beat egg yolks. Add milk, vanilla and butter to egg yolks and mix well. Combine flour, salt and sugar and add to egg yolk mixture. Mix until you have a thick, smooth batter. Using a rubber spatula, fold egg whites into batter very gently. Cook for about 4 minutes.

Top with your favorite fresh or frozen (thawed) fruit and fresh whipped cream.

Yield 7 to 11 waffles.
