Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.75 cups Buttermilk
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Pecans, chopped and toasted
• 0 Non-stick cooking spray or melted butter (for 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 all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, combine the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix. It’s fine if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the toasted pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray or melted butter.

Step 7

Ladle the appropriate amount of batter onto the waffle iron (refer to your waffle iron’s capacity). Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, typically 4-5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.

Step 8

Carefully remove the cooked waffle and transfer it to a wire rack or plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron between batches as needed.

Step 9

Serve the pecan waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, whipped cream, or fresh fruit.
