Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs, separated
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- Extra powdered sugar for dusting
How to Make Stacked Waffles with Berries and Cream
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the egg yolks, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. It’s okay if there are a few lumps.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the batter, being careful not to deflate them.
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease it if necessary.
- Pour enough batter into the waffle iron to cover the surface but avoid overfilling. Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.
- Carefully remove the waffles and keep them warm in a low oven while you repeat with the remaining batter.
- While the waffles are cooking, make the whipped cream. In a medium bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until soft peaks form.
- To serve, stack the waffles on a plate, top with a generous amount of whipped cream, and sprinkle fresh berries on top. Dust with additional powdered sugar if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure your waffle iron is preheated for even cooking.
- Don’t overmix the batter; it should be lumpy for the fluffiest waffles.
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dry ingredients.
- Serve immediately for the best texture; waffles can become soggy if left too long.
Easy Variations
- Swap out the berries for your favorite fruits such as sliced bananas or peaches.
- Add chocolate chips or nuts to the batter for added flavor and texture.
- Drizzle with maple syrup or honey for a sweeter finish.
What to Serve With It
- Crispy bacon or sausage for a savory contrast.
- Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
- A smoothie or fresh juice to elevate your brunch experience.
