Secret #1: Whip the egg whites

Yes, this sounds like a pain—but trust us, the end result is worth it. Whipped egg whites add extra air to the batter, guaranteeing waffles that'll rise to their fluffiest potential. Use a handheld or stand mixer to make the job easy.

Use a hot griddle or waffle iron: Make sure your griddle or waffle iron is hot before adding the batter. This will help create a crispy crust on the outside while allowing the inside to cook evenly. Don't overcrowd the griddle or waffle iron: Give each pancake or waffle enough space to cook without touching each other.

A lazy keto diet only requires someone to limit their carbohydrates to 10% or less of their daily calories. This approach means that a person does not need to track their fat and protein intake. Some people use keto diets to lose weight or reduce their body fat.
