Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.75 cups whole milk
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil (for greasing the waffle iron, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the whole milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well incorporated.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and gently mix with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should have some small lumps.
Lightly grease your waffle iron plates with a small amount of vegetable oil or follow the waffle iron's non-stick instructions.
Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron (usually about 1/2 - 3/4 cup, depending on your waffle iron's size). Close the lid and cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, approximately 3-5 minutes per waffle, or as instructed for your appliance.
Carefully remove the finished waffle using tongs or a silicone spatula and transfer it to a wire rack to prevent it from becoming soggy while you cook the remaining waffles.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as butter, maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
