Irresistible blueberry waffles made with fresh blueberries from your backyard, farmers’ market, or grocery store are a special way to start your day.

Ingredients

1 2/3 cups milk
3 large eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup melted butter
2/3 cup blueberries
1 1/2 cups blueberries
3 T honey
1/2 c orange juice
1 T cornstarch

Directions

1 Make the waffles: In a medium bowl, whisk together milk and egg yolks. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in melted butter and let stand for about 30 minutes.
2 Lightly grease and preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
3 Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff. Fold into batter with blueberries.
4 Working in batches, scoop portions of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron. Cook each waffle until golden brown and the iron stops steaming, 4 to 6 minutes.
5 Meanwhile, make the sauce: Stir blueberries, 1/4 cup orange juice, and honey together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil.
6 Mix remaining 1/4 cup orange juice and cornstarch together in a small bowl; stir into the blueberry mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Serve warm over waffles.
