Ingredients

• 1 cup milk
• 3 tablespoons white sugar
• 4 eggs, separated
• 2 tablespoons baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup butter, melted
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups rolled oats
• 1.5 cups buttermilk

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat a waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Mix flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.

Step 2

Beat egg yolks together. Add buttermilk, milk, and butter. Beat until well combined. Pour buttermilk mixture into flour mixture. Beat until well combined.

Step 3

Beat egg whites and vanilla extract together in a bowl until soft peaks form. Fold 1/2 of the egg whites into buttermilk batter until combined. Repeat with remaining 1/2 of the egg whites.

Step 4

Ladle batter into preheated waffle iron. Cook until waffles are golden and crisp, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to prevent sogginess. Repeat with remaining batter.
