Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and equipment: waffle iron, large mixing bowl, whisk, measuring cups and spoons, and a spatula.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: sift together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, ensuring they are well mixed and free of lumps.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until they are well beaten and slightly frothy.
- Add milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the beaten eggs. Whisk these wet ingredients together until they are thoroughly combined.
- Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold and mix with a whisk until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some small lumps are okay.
- Preheat the waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the waffle iron plates with cooking spray or brush with melted butter.
- Pour the appropriate amount of batter into the center of the preheated waffle iron. Close the lid and cook until the waffle is golden brown and crisp.
- Carefully remove the waffle using a fork or spatula. Repeat with remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron between batches.
- Serve immediately while hot, topped with butter, maple syrup, fresh fruits, or your favorite waffle accompaniments.
Tips
- • Always sift your dry ingredients to prevent lumpy batter and ensure a smooth, even texture. • Don't overmix the batter - a few small lumps are actually good for creating light, airy waffles. • Preheat your waffle iron thoroughly and lightly grease between each batch for the crispiest results. • Let the batter rest for 2-3 minutes before cooking to allow the flour to absorb the liquid. • For extra richness, substitute half the milk with buttermilk. • Keep cooked waffles warm in a low-temperature oven (200°F) while preparing the entire batch. • Experiment with toppings like fresh berries, whipped cream, or even a sprinkle of powdered sugar for variety.
