Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup (for serving)
- Fresh berries or whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined (don’t overmix).
- Grease your waffle iron with non-stick spray or a small amount of melted butter.
- Pour batter onto the preheated waffle iron (the amount depends on your waffle iron’s size) and cook until golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully remove the waffle and serve immediately with warm maple syrup. Optional: top with fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- Waffles can be kept warm in a 200°F oven while making batches.
- For crispier waffles, use a higher heat setting on the waffle iron.
- Leftovers can be frozen and reheated in a toaster for convenience.
