Preparation
- Step 1
To make the syrup, bring the sugar and water to a boil in a saucepan and stir until all the sugar is dissolved. Continue to boil, without stirring, until the syrup thickens slightly and its surface becomes shiny. Pour the syrup into a stainless steel bowl and stir in the pecans. Carefully add the whisky and the vanilla. Keep warm to be served over the waffles.
- Step 2
Chop the bacon into small pieces and cook in a frying pan with the butter. Beat the egg yolks with the milk and add the cooked bacon and butter from the frying pan. Chop the pecans to a medium-coarse consistency. Mix together with the cornmeal, flour, salt and baking powder and stir into the egg yolk mixture. Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks, then gradually fold them into the batter. Cook in a hot waffle iron until brown, but still moist inside.
