Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder

• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 2 cups buttermilk
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0 nonstick cooking spray or melted butter for greasing waffle iron

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula or whisk just until combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are okay.

Step 5

Lightly grease the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray or melted butter.

Step 6

Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the heated waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron’s instructions for batter quantity). Use a spatula to spread the batter if needed.

Step 7

Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, typically 4-5 minutes per batch.

Step 8

Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a pat of butter.
