Description
Create delightful, crispy waffles from scratch. A simple blend of flour, sugar, and eggs yields a perfect breakfast staple.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron. For a crispier texture, consider utilizing a darker or higher heat setting if available.
- In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a separate medium bowl, combine and whisk the milk, melted unsalted butter, large eggs, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just incorporated, being careful not to overmix.
- Lightly grease the hot waffle iron grids with a small amount of butter or cooking spray. Ladle approximately 1/3 cup of batter onto the hot waffle iron for each waffle. The exact quantity may vary based on the specific size and design of your waffle maker.
- Cook the waffles until they achieve a desirable golden-brown hue. Transfer the cooked waffles to a wire rack to allow air circulation, which helps maintain their crispness. Serve immediately while hot, accompanied by maple syrup, butter, or your preferred toppings.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding chocolate chips or blueberries to the batter.
- Store leftover waffles in the refrigerator for up to 2 days or freeze for longer storage.
