Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray.
Pour the appropriate amount of batter (usually about 1/2 cup, but check your waffle iron capacity) onto the waffle iron and close the lid.
Cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp, typically 4–5 minutes, or until your waffle iron indicates they are done.
Carefully remove the waffles and repeat with the remaining batter.
Serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
