Method

Waffle Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

  4. 4

    Preheat your Belgian waffle maker. Once hot, pour an appropriate amount of batter into the waffle maker and cook until golden brown. Repeat until all batter is used.

    Combine with Cornstarch

    Whisk in the cornstarch into the egg mixture until smooth.

  5. 9

    Temper the Egg Mixture

    Gradually add a small amount of the hot milk to the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the yolks. Then gradually whisk the egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk.

  6. 10

    Thicken Custard

    Continue to cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract.
