Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, these homemade waffles are a versatile and comforting breakfast treat that’s easy to whip up and perfect for sweet or savory toppings.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted (or oil)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the waffle iron and lightly grease it if necessary.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the hot waffle iron and cook according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually 3–5 minutes, until golden and crisp.
  6. Serve immediately with desired toppings or keep warm in a 200°F oven while making the rest.

Notes

  • Add cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a warm flavor twist.
  • For savory waffles, reduce sugar and add cheese or herbs.
  • Use part whole wheat flour or stir in mashed banana or pumpkin for seasonal variations.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat in the toaster or oven to restore crispness.
