    Hi!

    I tried this recipe this morning and I’m wondering if the recipe should read 2 egg whites instead of 2 cups? I misread the recipe when deciding what to make and I was 2-3 eggs short of the 2 cups but went ahead and made them anyway. They were over the top fluffy but it was like eating pure egg white cooked on the waffle iron. The next time I will try it with just the 2 whites from the 2 yolks in the main batter and see how that does but wanted to check in case anyone else might try these.

    Thanks for the recipes and your site, I enjoy reading it!

    Denise, I was wondering about the 2 cups of egg whites too! I used just 2 egg whites and it was perfect. (I also adjusted the flour to 2 1/2 cups and used only 1 T of baking powder.) First time I’ve made waffles in forever…and they didn’t disappoint.

    I have been doing a lot of experimenting with einkorn. This us absolutely the best waffle recipe out there. I make one adjustment of adding 2 teaspoons of lemon juice to the milk and let it sit before mixing. These are irresistible!

    These were delicious!
    I made these with unsweetened cashew milk ( I only used 1 1/2 cups)
    I plan on freezing some to have a quick tasty breakfast.
    Definitely a keeper

    Thank you for the recipe. I’ve made this recipe before without whipping the egg whites and I think doing so actually makes a big difference.

    This time I doubled the recipe and used 50/50 yogurt and water and avocado oil instead of olive oil because I didn’t have those ingredients. I did whip the egg whites and the waffles came out delicious.

    Next time I’ll have to try the recipe with milk and the whip egg whites like the original recipe says, but it’s good to know 50/50 yogurt and water works in a pinch.

    Thanks again! It’s a keeper for sure.
