Ingredients

Units Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Toppings:

  • Maple syrup
  • Fresh berries
  • Whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  4. Blend Batter: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined; do not overmix. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  5. Cook Waffles: Lightly grease the waffle iron, pour the batter onto it, and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4–5 minutes.
  6. Serve: Remove waffles and serve warm with preferred toppings.

Notes

  • For extra crispy waffles, replace 1/4 cup of milk with seltzer water.
  • You can also fold in blueberries or chocolate chips for variety.
  • Waffles freeze well—just toast to reheat.
