Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 cups milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup ham, diced
- 0.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk and melted butter. Whisk until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Fold the diced ham and shredded cheddar cheese (if using) into the batter.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Pour the batter into the waffle iron, spreading it evenly but not overfilling (leave space for the batter to expand).
Cook the waffles according to your waffle iron's instructions, usually about 4-6 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, reapplying cooking spray as needed.
Serve the ham waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, sour cream, or a fried egg.
