Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • cup buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Serving

  • syrup, buttermilk syrup, peanut butter drizzle, etc.
  • fresh fruit
  • whipped cream

Instructions

  • Heat up your waffle iron while you prepare the waffle batter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir with a whisk. Make a well in the center.
  • Into the well in the center, add the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Stir gently with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon just until combined and no flour streaks remain.
  • Let the batter rest for 2 minutes.
  • Spray the waffle iron with cooking spray and dump 1/2 cup of waffle batter onto it. Repeat with remaining waffles. Cook to desired crispness level.
    * All waffle makers or irons are different sizes so you may need less batter or more batter for each waffle. This can also change the yield of the recipe to 4-6 waffles.
  • Serve waffles hot with butter, syrup of choice, fresh fruit, and whipped cream.

Notes
