Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix. It’s fine if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Fold in the toasted pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or melted butter.
Ladle the appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron’s capacity). Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
Carefully remove the cooked waffle and transfer it to a wire rack or plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron between batches as needed.
Serve the pecan waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
