Crispy Belgian Butter Olive Oil Waffles

Melted butter is the usual move in a waffle batter. Our Natural Butter Fused Olive Oil does the same job with a lot less hassle, and a little extra depth.

Our Natural Butter Fused Olive Oil tastes exactly like what it sounds like — real butter flavor, fused right into the oil, no melting or browning required. It goes straight into the batter here, and the waffles come out crisp on the outside, tender in the middle, with that unmistakable buttery flavor in every bite.

No creaming butter, no waiting for it to cool before mixing. Just measure, whisk, and pour.

Why Whipped Egg Whites Matter

The secret to a truly light, crispy Belgian waffle isn't the recipe, it's the technique. Whipping the egg whites separately and folding them in gently is what gives these waffles their airy interior underneath that crisp exterior. It's an extra step, but it's a five-minute one that makes a real difference.

Butter flavor without the melting, browning, or waiting for it to cool. That's the whole appeal here.

Brush a little extra Butter Olive Oil on the waffle iron itself before each batch. It crisps the outside even further and keeps everything from sticking.

Total 30 min

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp sugar
2 cups milk or buttermilk
2 large eggs, separated
1/3 cup Natural Butter Fused Olive Oil, plus more for the waffle iron
1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your waffle iron.
Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar together in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg yolks, Butter Olive Oil, and vanilla together.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk until just combined.
In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites to soft peaks, then gently fold them into the batter.
Brush the waffle iron with a little Butter Olive Oil, pour in the batter, and cook until golden and crisp.
Serve warm with a drizzle of extra Butter Olive Oil, maple syrup, or fresh fruit.

Make-ahead tip: Cooked waffles freeze beautifully. Cool completely, freeze in a single layer, then transfer to a bag. Reheat straight from frozen in a toaster or oven for a fast weekday breakfast.

Make It Your Own

Fold a handful of blueberries or chocolate chips into the batter before cooking. For a savory twist, skip the sugar and vanilla and serve the waffles with fried chicken or a drizzle of hot honey instead.
