Sift dry ingredients into mixing bowl. Slightly beat egg yolks and milk. Pour egg-milk mixture and melted butter into a well made in the dry ingredients; stir only until all ingredients are mixed. Beat egg whites until stiff but still glossy; fold into batter with hazelnuts. Pour batter on preheated waffle iron. Bake 4 to 5 minutes, or until crisp and browned.
