In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light and fluffy, then mix in the buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Fold in the toasted pecans, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturerβs instructions and lightly grease it with nonstick cooking spray.
Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the center of the heated waffle iron, spreading it slightly if needed.
Close the lid and cook according to your waffle ironβs instructions, typically 4-5 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat the process with the remaining batter.
Serve warm with butter, syrup, or your favorite toppings.
