Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 whole large eggs
- 1.5 cups milk
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (for waffles)
- 2 cups fresh blueberries (for sauce)
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar (for sauce)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.25 cups water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon cold water
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Be careful not to overmix—small lumps are fine.
Gently fold in the 1 cup of fresh blueberries.
Ladle the batter onto the preheated waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually 4-5 minutes per batch, until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
While the waffles are cooking, prepare the blueberry sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the 2 cups of fresh blueberries, 0.5 cups of sugar, lemon juice, and 0.25 cups of water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Once the mixture is boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes until the blueberries start to break down.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon of cold water to form a slurry. Slowly stir the slurry into the blueberry sauce while it’s simmering.
Continue cooking the sauce, stirring constantly, for another 1-2 minutes until it thickens to your desired consistency. Remove from heat.
Serve the waffles warm with the blueberry sauce drizzled over the top. Optionally, add more fresh blueberries or a dollop of whipped cream for garnish.
