Pecan Waffles Recipe - Chef Marian Getz

Makes 4 waffles

Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon sugar
8 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups milk
3 eggs, separated (whites will be whipped separately)
1/2 cup ground pecans
1/2 cup toasted pecan pieces

Procedure:
1 In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients. Add butter, vanilla, milk, and egg yolks. Whisk to blend.
2 In a separate bowl beat egg whites to soft peaks (tips curl).
3 Fold whipped egg whites into batter.
4 Add pecans and fold into batter.
5 Spray preheated Grill & Bake Express with nonstick baking spray. Use 1 slightly rounded 8-ounce metal measuring cup full of batter and pour into Grill & Bake Express. Bake for 5 minutes until golden
brown or to the desired doneness. Repeat with the remaining batter. Serve immediately.

Note: 
Grill & Bake Express is basically an electric grill with attachable waffle plates. If you don't own a Grill & Bake Express machine, try an ordinary waffle maker.
