Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- nonstick cooking spray or melted butter for greasing waffle iron
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula or whisk just until combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are okay.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray or melted butter.
Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the heated waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron’s instructions for batter quantity). Use a spatula to spread the batter if needed.
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, typically 4-5 minutes per batch.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed between batches.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a pat of butter.
