Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1.25 cups milk
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • large bowl
  • whisk
  • waffle iron

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Cooking
  1. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined; do not overmix, as lumps are acceptable.
  2. Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it.
  3. Pour about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron, depending on its size.
  4. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Carefully remove the waffle and serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For extra fluffy waffles, separate the egg whites and whip them to stiff peaks, then fold them into the batter at the very end.
