Preparation

1. Mix together the butter, sugar and vanilla. Add the egg yolks, salt and lemon zest. Whisk until foamy.
2. Add the milk and then the flour. Gently fold in the grated carrots and set aside.
3. Whip the whipping cream with the sugar until it forms firm peaks. Add the orange liqueur.
4. Whisk the egg whites until stiff and fold them into the reserved waffle batter.
5. Cook the waffles in an oiled waffle iron,* then serve them topped with the whipped cream and sprinkled with icing sugar.

*If you don’t have a waffle iron, you can cook them like pancakes.
