Power Waffles

== Description ==
.
== Ingredients ==
* 1½ cups non-fat milk (divided)
* ¾ cup crystallized ginger
* 3 tablespoons sugar
* ½ teaspoon fresh (compressed) yeast
* 1¼ cups Sir Galahad all-purpose flour
* ¾ cup buckwheat flour
* 150 g (5.3 ounces) rolled oats
* 1 tablespoon cinnamon
* ½ teaspoon baking powder
* 2 egg whites (Heidi note: I ended up using 4)
* ⅓ cup melted butter
== Directions ==
# The night before, gently warm ½ cup of the milk and dissolve the yeast. Don't heat the milk too much or it will kill the yeast. 
# Chop the ginger and steep it in a different ½ cup of hot milk, let it steep for ten minutes, so the milk becomes flavored. 
# Combine the remaining ½ cup milk with the steeped ginger milk and the yeast milk.
# In a separate large bowl combine all the dry ingredients. 
# Pour in the milk liquids and stir until combined. 
# Scrape down the sides of the bowl, cover with plastic, and leave to rise on a counter overnight.
# The next morning, heat up your waffle iron. Melt the butter in a small saucepan. 
# Whip the egg whites in a mixer . Using a mixer with paddle attachment (or by hand) stir in ¾ of the butter. Mix until fully incorporated. 
# Add the egg whites, and finish by stirring in the rest of the melted butter.
# Ladle waffle batter onto heated waffle maker, and cook until deep and golden brown.
