Patrick's Waffles

They are melt in your mouth delicious.

A little crunch on the outside

Soft and warm and egg-y on the inside.

We've upgraded waffle makers several times over the years.

Each time to his great delight.

Under the Christmas tree is usually a new bottle of quality maple syrup.

Father's Day might have had a few golf shirts here and there.

But, bring home a new waffle maker.

And you will see a man in pure delight!

Patrick's Yummy Waffles:  

(No official recipe.  I had to pin him down to get this.  Actually he was thrilled.  He is so happy to be "highlighted"  for a "feature" in my little world of pretend big-time magazine editor!!  You would think he is being featured in Bon Appetit or something...) 

2 c. of flour
3 Tsp baking powder
Tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
4 eggs separated into yolks and whites
2/3 c. oil or butter (melted)
1 tsp vanilla
2 c. milk

Mix dry ingredients together in a large bowl.  Combine egg yolks, oil (or butter), vanilla, and milk in another bowl.

Combine dry mixture and wet mixture together.  Be careful not to over mix.

Beat egg whites until stiff peaks form.  Fold batter gently into the egg whites.

Ready to go!  Bake in your favorite waffle maker.
