Steps:
- Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (to keep cooked waffles warm). Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, butter, shortening and eggs in another bowl. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until just incorporated (it's okay if there are some lumps).
- Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with butter. Fill the waffle iron about three-quarters of the way full (some waffle iron should still be showing). Close the lid gently and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Keep the cooked waffles warm in the oven or covered with foil on a plate while you make the remaining waffles.
- Serve with maple syrup, butter, sugar or fruit preserves.

CRISPY WAFFLES
This is a much better recipe than the traditional one which uses milk/buttermilk. These waffles come out much crispier and are naturally low in fat, hence no 'diet' food yuk-iness. To cut calories, I use Splenda, but sugar of course will work too. Note though that the key to good waffles is a good waffle maker. Most people buy ones with 600 W which turns out wet, flat pancake like pieces of cooked batter. I have a 1500 W Cuisinart and it works great. Anything above 1300 W should produce good results

Steps:
- First preheat your waffle maker.
- It's important that it gets really hot.
- Next, separate the egg and beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry (dry egg whites are more difficult to incorporate and end up deflating quicker due to the increased amount of stroking to mix them with the batter).
- In a separate bowl, place the egg yolk, flour, baking powder and sugar.
- Mix to combine.
- Add the vanilla extract and enough water to make a batter a little thicker than the consistency of heavy cream.
- Add the egg whites and with large, delicate strokes incorporate into the batter.
- Spray the waffle maker with non stick cooking spray before the first batch.
- Pour a generous amount onto the waffle maker, it will vary depending on what kind you have.
- Bake until golden brown or until desired crispiness is reached.

Tips:
- Use a quality waffle maker: A good waffle maker will distribute heat evenly and cook the waffles evenly. If you use a cheap waffle maker, you'll likely end up with unevenly cooked waffles that are not crispy on the outside.
- Use the right waffle batter: Not all waffle batters are created equal. Some are too thin and will spread out too much in the waffle maker, while others are too thick and will not cook evenly. Use a waffle batter recipe that is specifically designed for crispy waffles.
- Don't overfill the waffle maker: If you overfill the waffle maker, the waffles will not cook evenly. Fill the waffle maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Cook the waffles until they are golden brown: Don't undercook the waffles, or they will be soft and chewy instead of crispy. Cook the waffles until they are golden brown on both sides.
- Serve the waffles immediately: Waffles are best served hot and crispy. If you let them sit around, they will become soft and chewy.
Conclusion:
Making ultra crispy waffles is easy if you follow these tips. Use a quality waffle maker, the right waffle batter, and don't overfill the waffle maker. Cook the waffles until they are golden brown and serve them immediately. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect crispy waffles every time.
