Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups All purpose flour
- 4 tsps Baking powder
- 1 tbsp White sugar
- ¼ tsp Salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- ½ cup Butter (melted)
- 1¾ cup Milk
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron machine according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the iron is hot enough for proper cooking and crispiness.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening agents and seasoning.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are light and fluffy, then add the vanilla extract and mix well for enhanced flavor.
- Mix Batter: Add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, then pour in the melted butter and milk. Whisk until the batter is smooth, but be careful not to over-mix to keep the waffles tender.
- Rest Batter: Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the baking powder to activate, which will help make the waffles fluffier.
- Cook Waffles: Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, following your waffle iron’s timing guidelines.
- Serve: Serve the waffles immediately with your choice of toppings such as maple syrup, butter, or whipped cream for a delicious treat.
Notes
- Do not over-mix the batter to avoid tough waffles.
- Resting the batter helps create lighter, fluffier waffles.
- Use melted butter to add richness and improve texture.
- Waffles are best served fresh and hot for crispiness.
- To keep waffles warm while cooking others, place them on a wire rack in a low oven.
