Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder
- 2 tablespoons Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 3/4 cups Whole Milk
- 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- Cooking Spray or Oil, for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat your Belgian waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are fine.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or oil.
- Pour about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron and close the lid.
- Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until the waffle is golden brown and crisp.
- Carefully remove the waffle and repeat with remaining batter. Keep cooked waffles warm in a 200°F oven if needed.
Notes
- Let the batter rest for 10 minutes before cooking for fluffier waffles.
- Don’t stack waffles—keep them on a wire rack or in a warm oven to stay crisp.
- Add citrus zest, cinnamon, or chocolate chips for fun variations.
- Freeze extras and reheat in a toaster for a quick breakfast.
