Ingredients
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 to medium-high.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix just until combined (some lumps are fine).
Lightly grease the waffle iron, pour in ⅓ to ½ cup batter, and cook until golden and crisp.
Place finished waffles on a wire rack or keep warm in a 200°F oven.
Notes
Don’t overmix the batter—lumps are your friend.
For crispier waffles, leave them in the iron for an extra 30 seconds.
To freeze: Let waffles cool completely, freeze in a single layer, then store in bags.
