Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 1.75 cups buttermilk
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cups cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- cooking spray or additional butter (for waffle iron)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and gently fold just until no streaks of flour remain. Do not overmix; the batter will have some lumps.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions, and lightly grease it with cooking spray or butter.
Spoon an appropriate amount of batter into the preheated waffle iron (typically about 1/2 to 2/3 cup, depending on your waffle iron's size) and spread it evenly. Close the waffle iron.
Cook the waffles until golden brown and crispy on the outside. This generally takes 4-6 minutes, but follow your waffle iron's specific cooking guidelines.
Carefully remove the cooked waffle using a fork or non-stick tool, and place it on a wire rack to retain its crispness as you cook the remaining batter.
Repeat with the remaining batter, ensuring you re-grease the waffle iron as needed between batches.
Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a pat of butter for added indulgence!
