Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions.

In a large bowl, whisk together the all_purpose_flour, sugar, baking_powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, warm milk, melted unsalted_butter, and vanilla_extract.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined (a few lumps are okay).

Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl with an electric mixer until form.

Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter with a spatula until no white streaks remain.

Ladle the batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook according to your machine's settings, usually 3-5 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.

Serve immediately with butter, maple syrup, and fresh berries.
