# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Protein packed breakfast that keeps you full until lunch without feeling heavy
  • The tang from yogurt creates waffles with restaurant quality texture and flavor depth
02 -
  • Overmixing develops gluten and makes waffles tough, so stop mixing as soon as flour disappears
  • Letting the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking creates even fluffier results
03 -
  • Separate the eggs and whip the whites before folding them in for extra fluffy restaurant style waffles
  • Let the iron preheat for an extra few minutes after it says it's ready for better crisping
