Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

3 eggs, separated

1 cup buttermilk

2/3 cup sour cream

1/2 cup melted butter

1 large grapefruit

1/2 cup orange juice, approximately

Fresh or frozen blueberries

Sliced almonds

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in large mixing bowl. Halve grapefruit and loosen sections with fruit knife. Squeeze sections and juice into measuring cup and fill to 1-cup mark with orange juice.

In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, buttermilk, and sour cream, adding fruit juice mixture. Stir into dry ingredients to form moist batter. Beat egg whites into stiff peaks and fold gently into batter.

Bake waffles according to manufacturer's directions in preheated waffle iron until golden brown. Dust with powdered sugar and sprinkle with blueberries and sliced almonds. Serve immediately with warm Lemon Curd and hot Spiced Orange Syrup. For a delicious taste complement, serve Bacon Egg Nests on the side.

Note: After cooling on wire rack, baked waffles may be frozen in a single layer on baking sheets and stored in plastic freezer bags for later use. Reheat frozen waffles on ungreased baking sheet for 10 minutes in 400-degree oven.

Yields: 14 to 16 waffles
