Blueberry Malted Waffles

Preheat waffle iron. Preheat oven to 200°F.

Whisk flour, malted-milk powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Whisk egg yolk, buttermilk, oil and vanilla in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients until just moistened.

Beat egg whites in a clean bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until glossy but not dry. Whisk one-quarter of the beaten whites into the batter, then fold in the remaining whites.

Lightly coat the waffle iron with cooking spray. Spoon in the batter, sprinkle with blueberries, close the lid and cook until waffle is crisp and golden (follow manufacturer’s instructions). Transfer the cooked waffles to the oven to them keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter, lightly coating iron with cooking spray each time, if necessary. Dust waffles with confectioners’ sugar before serving, if desired.
