Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
3 teaspoons baking powder
2 eggs, separated
1 Tablespoon sugar
2 cups flour, sifted
1½ cups milk
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup melted butter
2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
¼ cup water
1 cup orange juice
½ cup white sugar
¼ cup cold water
3 tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon almond extract
⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

SAUCE: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, ¼ cup water, orange juice, and sugar. Stir gently and bring to a boil.
In a cup or small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and ¼ cup cold water. Gently stir the cornstarch mixture into the blueberries. Simmer gently until thick enough to coat the back of the metal spoon. This should take 1 to 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in almond extract and cinnamon. Thin sauce with water if it is too thick for your liking. Serve over hot waffles.
WAFFLES: Beat eggs whites until stiff and set aside.
Sift together dry ingredients.
Slowly stir in milk, beaten egg yolks and melted butter.
Preheat waffle iron.
Fold blueberries into waffle mixture.
Gently fold in stiffly beaten egg whites.
Bake in hot waffle iron.
