Extra Light, Extra Good Homemade Belgian Waffles

Ingredients

• 4 eggs, preferably at room temperature
• 3 Tbsp. butter or margarine, melted
• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Directions

Separate eggs; beat whites until stiff but not dry. Place in a separate bowl. Mix remaining ingredients together, then fold in whites. Cook in Belgian waffler (or regular waffle iron) according to manufacturer's directions. The number of servings will depend on the size of your waffle maker. The recipe may be doubled, if desired. Serve with your favorite toppings or store-bought syrup. For a change of pace, lightly sprinkle waffles with a little freshly-squeezed lemon juice, then shake some confectioners' sugar from a sifter on top before serving.
