Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 80 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 large Egg whites
- 60 grams Unsalted butter (melted)
- 60 ml Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt until the dry ingredients are well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites until they are slightly frothy, then add the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Stir until fully combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The batter should have a slightly runny consistency.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or waffle cone maker over medium heat. If using a skillet, lightly grease it with butter or oil.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet or waffle cone maker and spread it into a thin, even circle around 5-6 inches in diameter. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and the surface starts to set.
Carefully flip the disc (if using a skillet) and cook for an additional 30-60 seconds until fully cooked and pliable.
Quickly remove the cooked disc and shape it into a cone by wrapping it around a cone mold or shaping it by hand. Pinch the bottom to seal the tip. Hold it in shape for a few seconds until it firms up.
Repeat with the remaining batter. Allow the cones to cool completely on a wire rack to crisp up.
Once cooled, fill the cones with your favorite ice cream and enjoy!
