Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure it's ready when the batter is prepared.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the egg whites until they become frothy. Do not overbeat.
Add the low-fat milk, low-fat yogurt, and vanilla extract to the frothy egg whites and whisk until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to ensure airy waffles.
Stir in the honey, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Lightly coat the waffle iron with vegetable oil spray to prevent sticking.
Ladle the appropriate amount of batter onto the hot waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron's instructions for guidance), close the lid, and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and place them on a wire rack to prevent them from becoming soggy as they cool.
Serve immediately with your favorite low-fat toppings, such as fresh fruit or a drizzle of honey.
