Instructions

Whisk together the melted butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl. Add the milk and whisk well to combine.

Sift in the flour and baking powder just until no streaks of flour remain.

Heat your waffle iron to your desired setting (I like mine at medium). Spray your waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray before cooking the waffles according to the manufacturer's directions. Serve warm with desired toppings. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Buttermilk Magic 🥛
Replace half the milk with buttermilk for extra fluffy, tangy waffles with a lighter texture and deeper flavor profile.
Batter Rest Technique 🕰️
Let the waffle batter rest for 10-15 minutes before cooking to allow flour proteins to relax and create a more tender waffle.
Waffle Iron Prep 🧈
Lightly brush your waffle iron with melted butter before each pour to prevent sticking and create a crispy, golden exterior.
Vanilla Extract Upgrade 🌿
Use pure vanilla extract instead of imitation for a richer, more complex vanilla flavor that elevates the entire waffle experience.
Texture Perfect Mixing 🥣
Mix wet and dry ingredients just until combined - overmixing will develop gluten and create tough, dense waffles.
