Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour Use fresh flour for best results
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Optional for flavor enhancement
  • 4 teaspoons Baking powder Check expiration date for best rise
Wet Ingredients
  • 2 large Eggs Bring to room temperature for better results
  • 1.5 cups Milk Whole milk is ideal for richness
  • 0.5 cup Melted butter Use unsalted for the best flavor
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract For a sweet aroma

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If needed, grease it lightly with butter.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs. Add in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined—lumpy batter is acceptable.
Cooking
  1. Pour the batter into the preheated, greased waffle iron and bake according to the waffle iron’s instructions until golden brown.

Notes

Consider pairing your waffles with freshly brewed coffee. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days or freeze for later use. You can add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg for a festive touch during the holiday seasons.
