The sweet yet tangy flavors of lemonade combined with fresh blueberries are the star of my Blueberry Lemonade Belgian Waffles!

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 6 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups whole or evaporated milk
  • 3 large organic eggs, separated
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon zest
  • 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron (paid link) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. 
  2. In a large bowl, whisk (paid link) together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, sugar, and sea salt until completely combined.
  3. In a medium bowl, add the 3 egg whites. Using a hand mixer (paid link), whip the whites until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  4. In another bowl, whisk (paid link) together the egg yolks, whole milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, fresh lemon zest, and lemon juice until smooth.
  5. Pour the wet yolk mixture into the dry flour mixture. Whisk (paid link) gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the batter using a rubber spatula (paid link) until no white streaks remain. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  7. Lightly spray the hot waffle iron (paid link) with non-stick oil (if required for your waffle iron (paid link)). Ladle the batter into the center of the waffle iron (paid link) (about ⅔ to ¾ cup, depending on your iron size). Close and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until steam stops escaping and the waffles are deep golden brown and crisp.
  8. Transfer the waffles directly to your prepared wire rack in the warm oven, or serve immediately topped with extra blueberries, lemon zest, and warm maple syrup.

Notes

If you want a waffle that is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, go with whole milk. For the maximum crunch, swap whole milk 1-for-1 with evaporated milk. Just keep a close eye on the waffle iron (paid link), as the higher sugar concentration means they will brown a little faster.

If you want ultra-crispy waffles, preheat your oven to 200°F and set a wire cooling rack inside a baking sheet (paid link)—this keeps cooked waffles warm and crisp while you finish the rest.
