Ingredients
  

Waffle Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • medium bowl
  • whisk
  • waffle iron

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  4. Heat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions and lightly grease it.
  5. Pour about 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron for each waffle and cook until golden brown and crispy, typically 3-5 minutes.
  6. Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra fluffy waffles, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. Do not overmix the batter; a few lumps are fine.
