Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ¾ cups milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat eggs, then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Combine and Cook: Pour wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. Lightly grease the waffle iron, pour batter, and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4–5 minutes.
- Serve: Repeat with remaining batter. Serve warm with desired toppings.
Notes
- For extra-crispy waffles, let them rest on a wire rack instead of stacking.
- You can freeze leftovers and reheat in a toaster for a quick breakfast.
- Substitute half the flour with whole wheat for a heartier version.
