In a mixing bowl combine the flour, sugar and baking powder.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, buttermilk, vanilla and butter.

Stir the wet mixture into the dry mixture to combine.

Beat the egg whites on high until foamy and thick. Fold the egg whites into the batter mixture until it reaches a consistency slightly thicker than pancake batter. You can add more buttermilk, if needed.

Heat a waffle iron and spray well with butter. Carefully pour in some waffle batter and cook about 4 to 5 minutes or until golden brown.

Top the waffles with butter, fried chicken and syrup. Serve immediately.
