In a separate bowl, mix the flour with the baking powder and add it to the batter. Fold in the grated cheese.

The consistency should be thick, like heavy sour cream. If it is stiff, add a little milk; if runny, a little flour.

Cooking

Heat the waffle iron. Cook for 5–7 minutes — do not open it for the first 4–5 minutes.

Move to a rack — do not stack them hot or they lose their crispness.
