Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray.
Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the heated waffle iron (typically about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on the size of your waffle iron) and close the lid.
Cook the waffle until it is golden brown and crisp, about 4-5 minutes, or as directed by your waffle iron’s settings.
Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the iron as needed between batches.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or yogurt.
