Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs (at room temperature)
- 1¼ cups milk (at room temperature)
- ½ cup unsalted butter (melted, 1 stick), plus more for serving
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Serving
- Maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat and grease waffle iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to manufacturer instructions and lightly grease it with melted butter to prevent sticking.
- Combine dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sea salt, and granulated sugar ensuring they are evenly mixed.
- Mix wet ingredients: In a medium bowl, beat the eggs well, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Combine wet and dry mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. A few lumps are fine and prevent overmixing which can toughen the waffles.
- Cook the waffles: Scoop about ½ cup of batter (or an amount suitable for your waffle iron) into the preheated waffle maker. Close and cook for about 4 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy on the outside. Cooking time may vary depending on your waffle iron.
- Serve: Remove the waffles carefully and serve hot topped with additional butter and maple syrup for a perfect breakfast treat.
