- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, butter, eggs and vanilla extract. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and gently whisk to combine. Do not overmix!
- Spray a waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray, then preheat. Once the waffle maker is ready, add the batter according to the manufacturer's instructions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the waffle maker indicates they are ready. Serve immediately, or place in a 300-degree oven to keep warm. Leftover waffles can be wrapped in plastic wrap, placed in a ziploc bag and stored in the refrigerator for 2 days or in the freezer for up to 1 month.
Notes
- Nutritional values are based on one waffle.
- Recommended Equipment: Breville Smart Waffle Maker or this single Belgian-style waffle maker
- Buttermilk Substitute: For this waffle recipe, add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice or white vinegar to a 2-cup measuring cup, then add enough milk to make 2 cups. Stir together, then use as directed in the recipe. (You only need 1¾ cups for this recipe; you can discard the leftover buttermilk.)
- Lumpy Batter – Don’t keep whisking until the batter is completely smooth; the air pockets in the lumps ensure wonderfully fluffy waffles.
- High Heat Setting – Don’t be afraid to crank up that temperature setting on your waffle iron; your waffles will NOT burn, but they will be significantly crisper when you turn up that setting versus leaving it low, resulting in soft waffles.
- Serving: If you are serving a group and want everyone to have warm and crisp waffles, place the finished waffles on a baking sheet in a 200-degree oven until ready to serve.
- Storage: You can store any leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Freezing: If you want to freeze leftover waffles, place them on a baking sheet in a single layer and put in the freezer until completely frozen. Then remove them from the baking sheet and store in a freezer-safe plastic bag for up to 2 months.
- Reheating: Whether you’re reheating a waffle from the refrigerator or freezer, use a toaster or toaster oven on a medium-high setting, or reheat in a 350-degree oven for 6 to 10 minutes.
