Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 units large eggs
• 1.5 cups whole milk
• 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle maker according to manufacturer's instructions.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk. Add the whole milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the eggs, and mix until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if some small lumps remain.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle maker with a little melted butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 6

Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle maker, depending on your waffle maker's size. Close the lid and cook the waffles until golden brown and crisp. This usually takes about 4-5 minutes, but timing may vary.

Step 7

Carefully remove the waffles from the waffle maker and place them on a wire rack to keep them crispy while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh berries, whipped cream, syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
