Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.75 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 scoops Vanilla ice cream
- Maple syrup or chocolate syrup (optional, for topping)
- Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
- Fresh fruits (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix—lumps are okay.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray or a brush of vegetable oil.
Pour an appropriate amount of waffle batter onto the preheated waffle iron (amount may vary based on your waffle maker) and close the lid.
Cook the waffles until they are golden brown and crisp, typically 3-5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
Carefully remove the waffles and place them on a wire rack to prevent sogginess. Repeat with the remaining batter.
To assemble, place a warm waffle on a serving plate. Add a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the waffle.
Drizzle with maple syrup or chocolate syrup if desired, and dust lightly with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
Garnish with fresh fruits like sliced strawberries, blueberries, or banana for added flavor and visual appeal.
Serve immediately and enjoy this simple yet indulgent dessert.
