Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 1.75 cups whole milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 as needed non-stick cooking spray (or melted butter for greasing the 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, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt, ensuring all dry ingredients are evenly combined.
Step 3
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, whole milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix. The batter may be slightly lumpy, which is normal.
Step 5
Lightly grease the waffle iron plates with non-stick cooking spray or a thin brushing of melted butter.
Step 6
Carefully ladle the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it slightly to ensure even distribution but not overfilling (check your manufacturer's guidelines for the correct amount per waffle).
Step 7
Close the waffle iron and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crisp. Cooking times may vary depending on your waffle maker.
Step 8
Remove the waffle from the iron using a fork or tongs, and place it on a plate or cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining batter.
Step 9
Serve the waffles warm with your choice of toppings such as syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, fresh fruit, or a pat of butter.
