Jackie Kennedy’s Fluffy Waffle Recipe

This waffle recipe makes light and fluffy waffles, with a nice and crispy crust, yet easy to make! Purportedly JFK’s favorite breakfast!

Now whether you believe that Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis ever cooked a thing in her life, or not, this Waffle Recipe has been attributed to her, or JFK, in numerous publications. One thing to keep in mind is that the 1960’s were not the the two thousand teens. Most women at least knew how cook some things in those days. It was just what women did. Having seen all of the press that included Mrs. Kennedy, in those times, she was pressed and perfect, a fashion icon and very glamorous. However, chances are she did cook a few things here and there, at some point in her life.

These waffles are quite different than typical waffles, or Belgian waffles. They have 2 leavening agents. Quite a bit of baking powder and egg whites, that are whisked to stiff peaks. These two additions make these waffles unbelievably fluffy!
