Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.75 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 2 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until evenly combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
Pour approximately 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter (depending on your waffle iron's size) onto the center of the preheated waffle iron, then close the lid.
Cook the waffle according to the waffle iron's instructions, usually until the steam subsides and the waffle is golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
Carefully remove the waffle using a fork or tongs, and transfer it to a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the iron as needed between batches.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
