Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.75 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- Cooking spray or melted butter (for waffle iron)
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-sized bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a whisk or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a thin layer of melted butter to prevent sticking.
Pour an appropriate amount of batter into the heated waffle iron (typically about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron). Spread the batter slightly, if needed, to ensure even cooking.
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp. This usually takes 5-7 minutes, but follow your waffle iron's specific timing instructions.
Carefully remove the cooked waffle using tongs or a silicone spatula. Repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
