Preheat the waffle iron.

Measure 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour into a large mixing bowl.

Add a little sugar to the flour (to taste).

Add 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 0.5 teaspoons of salt to the flour mixture and stir with fingers to blend.

Measure 1.25 cups of buttermilk and add to a separate bowl.

Add 0.5 cups of oil to the buttermilk.

Separate 2 eggs, adding the yolks to the buttermilk mixture and placing the whites in another bowl.

Stir the buttermilk mixture with the yolks and then pour into the flour mixture.

Whisk until blended, leaving a few lumps.

Whisk the egg whites by hand until fluffy.

Fold the whipped egg whites into the batter.

Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, filling it partially as the batter will expand.

Close the waffle iron and cook for about 3 minutes until golden brown.

Remove the waffles and serve with toppings like fresh fruit, icing sugar, or maple syrup.
