2 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups buttermilk

1/3 cup vegetable oil

2 large eggs, separated

1 pint blueberries (fresh or frozen)

6 slices bacon, cooked and chopped

Orange-Maple Syrup, to serve (see recipe)

Blueberries, for garnish

FOR THE ORANGE MAPLE SYRUP:

1 1/2 cups maple syrup

1 orange

1/8 teaspoon cardamom, optional

1.

Preheat waffle iron.
2.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add buttermilk, oil and egg yolks and whisk gently to combine.
3.

In a medium bowl using a hand mixer, whip egg whites to soft peaks. Fold into batter.
4.

When waffle iron is ready, pour batter into iron and sprinkle with blueberries and bacon. Close lid and cook according to manufacturer directions. When waffles are done, remove them from waffle maker and lay them on a wire rack to cool. Do not stack them, because the waffles will steam and lose their crispness. When cool, wrap each individually and freeze.
5.

When ready to serve, preheat oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees and heat 10 minutes or until crisp. Serve with Orange-Maple Syrup and a little butter and garnish with blueberries, if desired. Makes: 12 3-by-4-inch waffles

FOR THE ORANGE MAPLE SYRUP:
7.

In a small saucepan, warm maple syrup. Zest half the orange and add to the syrup. Juice the orange and add all the juice. Stir in cardamom and simmer 3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Put in a container and refrigerate. Will keep up to 2 weeks. Makes: 2 1/4 cups syrup
