Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder (low sodium)
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1.25 cups Milk (low-fat or whole)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or non-stick spray
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, low-sodium baking powder, and sugar. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with vegetable oil or non-stick spray, ensuring even coverage to prevent sticking.
Scoop the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using roughly 1/3 to 1/2 cup of batter per waffle, depending on your iron's size.
Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, typically 3-5 minutes. Check your waffle iron's guidelines for specific cooking times.
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter until all waffles are cooked.
Serve warm with fresh fruit, maple syrup, or any other low-sodium topping of your choice!
