Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron to medium-high heat and lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, blend buttermilk, vegetable oil, and eggs until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
- Gently fold fresh blueberries into the batter, ensuring even distribution.
- For the streusel topping, mix brown sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon in a small bowl until crumbly.
- Ladle waffle batter into preheated waffle iron, sprinkle streusel mixture over the batter before closing the iron.
- Cook waffles for 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- While waffles are cooking, prepare vanilla glaze by whisking powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Remove waffles from iron, drizzle with vanilla glaze, and serve immediately.
Tips
- Use fresh blueberries for the best flavor and texture - frozen can work in a pinch, but pat them dry first to prevent excess moisture.
- Don't overmix your batter! Lumpy batter creates fluffier waffles. Mix just until ingredients are combined.
- For extra crispy waffles, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
- Sprinkle streusel midway through cooking for a more caramelized, crunchy topping.
- Serve immediately for maximum crispiness - waffles lose their crunch quickly.
- If you don't have buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to regular milk and let sit for 5 minutes.
- For a more decadent glaze, use cream instead of milk and add a pinch of salt.
