Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a small amount of melted butter.
Spoon the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, using the recommended amount for your specific waffle iron model (usually about 1/2 to 3/4 cup).
Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, about 3-5 minutes, or until your waffle maker's indicator light signals they are done.
Carefully remove the waffles from the iron using a fork or spatula and place them on a wire rack to keep them crisp while you cook the remaining batter.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, or powdered sugar.
