I use this blueberry waffle recipe to help use up the massive amount of berries I pick each summer. I am fortunate to have four blueberry bushes in my backyard, and they supply me with fresh blueberries all summer.

Ingredients
Waffles:
1 ⅔ cups milk
3 large eggs, separated, divided
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup blueberries
Sauce:
1 1/2 cups blueberries
3 tbsp honey
1/2 cup orange juice, divided
1 tbsp cornstarch
Directions
Make the waffles: In a medium bowl, whisk together milk and egg yolks. Stir in flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in melted butter and let stand for about 30 minutes.
Lightly grease and preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff. Fold into batter with blueberries.
Working in batches, scoop portions of the batter onto the preheated waffle iron. Cook each waffle until golden brown and the iron stops steaming, 4 to 6 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the sauce: Stir blueberries, 1/4 cup orange juice, and honey together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil.
Mix remaining 1/4 cup orange juice and cornstarch together in a small bowl; stir into the blueberry mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Serve warm over waffles.
