Directions
-
STEP 1
Preheat your waffle machine according to manufacturer’s instructions. Preheat oven to 250˚F.
-
STEP 2
Make the waffles. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, brown sugar and nutmeg.
-
STEP 3
Separate the eggs. Place the yolks in a medium mixing bowl and place the whites in a bowl of an electric stand mixer. Whip the eggs whites on high speed until they are stiff, about 2 minutes.
-
STEP 4
Add the vanilla, canola oil, and eggnog to the egg yolks and whisk until frothy. Add the flour mixture to the egg yolk mixture and stir until a thick batter forms. Do not overmix. Gently fold the egg whites into this mixture.
-
STEP 5
Depending on the size of your waffle machine, fill with between 1/3 cup and 3/4 cup batter. After making each waffle, place on baking sheet and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.
-
STEP 6
Make the chocolate hazelnut sauce. Microwave milk in a medium microwave-safe bowl for 30 seconds or until steaming. Don’t overheat. Add the chocolate hazelnut spread to the bowl and stir until smooth, adding more milk for a thinner consistency, if desired.
-
STEP 7
Whip the cream, if desired. Serve warm waffles with chocolate hazelnut sauce, raspberries, and whipped cream.
