Ingredients
3 eggs, separated
3/4 cup milk
8 Tbs. (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 Tbs. sugar
1/2 cup fresh blueberries, plus more for garnish
Confectioners’ sugar for dusting
Maple syrup for serving
Directions
Preheat a waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, using a whisk, beat the egg yolks. Beat in the milk, butter and sour cream. Over a sheet of waxed paper, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sugar. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat until smooth. Stir in the 1/2 cup blueberries.
In another large bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. (Lift the whisk straight out of the bowl and invert; the whites should hold their shape with a slight bend at the tip.) Using a rubber spatula, fold 1/2 cup of the egg whites into the batter, then carefully fold in the remaining whites.
Cook the waffles according to the manufacturer's instructions. Garnish with the remaining blueberries, dust with the confectioners' sugar and serve hot with maple syrup.

Best waffle recipe everI have been using this recipe for years. My guests always ask me to make these waffles when they come to visit. I don't usually care for waffles - I could eat these every day.

Get in mah bellyThese turned out great, delicious and very tender. We had a family favorite Belgium Waffle recipe, but the family has now deemed these the waffle favorites. We doubled the batch for a large family.

Best WafflesThis is a very easy and great tasting recipe, it even passed my picky eaters test. Williams Sonoma is my "go to source" for reliable and tasty choices.

Perfect for an impressive breakfastThe best waffle recipe there is! I made it for brunch one day and everyone loved it. Not a lot of work to prepare. Definitely worth the time to beat at the egg whites. This will be your go to recipe.

Great WafflesAfter making this I will never use store-bought waffle mix again! Great, light texture. I found it easy to prepare, especially since I measured out everything in separate bowls ahead of time. I think it would taste great with or without using the blueberries. Thanks WS!!
