These waffles are a delightful twist on the classic Belgian waffles, featuring a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg for a warm, aromatic flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the water, sugar, and flour. Mix well and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes.
Allowing the mixture to sit helps hydrate the flour and dissolve the sugar.
Add the milk, melted butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the bowl. Stir until the batter is smooth.
Ensure the butter is cooled slightly before adding to prevent curdling.
Cover the batter and let it rest in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
Resting the batter allows the flavors to meld and the texture to improve.
Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gently fold them into the batter.
Folding in the egg whites gently helps maintain the batter's lightness.
Preheat the waffle iron and lightly grease it if necessary. Pour an appropriate amount of batter into the waffle iron and cook for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.
Avoid overfilling the waffle iron to prevent spillage.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
For an extra touch, dust the waffles with powdered sugar before serving.
