Ingredients (Makes 4-6 Waffles)

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 ¾ cups milk
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ¼ cup melted unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

  1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients
    • ​​​​​​​In a separate bowl, combine the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
  3. Combine the Mixtures
    • ​​​​​​​Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy—this helps with the fluffy texture.
  4. Preheat and Grease the Waffle Maker
    • ​​​​​​​Preheat your waffle iron. Lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
  5. Cook the Waffles
    • ​​​​​​​Pour about ⅓ cup of batter into the waffle iron (amount may vary depending on your waffle maker). Cook until golden brown and crispy—typically about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Serve and Enjoy
    • ​​​​​​​Remove the waffles carefully and serve immediately with your favorite toppings like syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
