These buttermilk waffles are crisp on the outside and tender in the middle. I love the results this gives while not having to separate the eggs and take time to whip egg whites! These will also reheat in the toaster for a quick workday breakfast.

Recipe Tip

To keep the waffles warm, preheat the oven to about 250 to 275 degrees F (120 to 135 degrees C). Place the cooked waffles on a wire rack on top of a baking sheet, and keep them in the oven as you make the whole batch.
