Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs divided, room temperature
- 1⅔ cups milk
- ⅓ cup melted butter or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions (or to 400°F if your waffle maker has a temperature gauge).
- Place flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to combine.
- In a small bowl, mix egg yolks, milk, butter, and vanilla extract. Set aside.
- In a separate medium bowl, beat egg whites with a mixer on medium high speed until stiff peaks form. *see note
- Add the egg yolk mixture to the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Gently fold in the egg whites.
- Drop by large spoonfuls onto greased waffle iron until most of the wells are covered. Close the lid and cook for about 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
- To Make the Best Waffles
- This recipe assumes you are using unsalted butter. If using salted butter, eliminate the salt ingredient.
- Whipped egg whites makes the lightest, fluffiest waffles, but you can make this recipe without beating the egg whites. If you do not, then reduce the milk to 1 1/2 cups, and add whole eggs to the butter mixture.
- Keep waffles warm in a 225°F oven while you make the remaining waffles.
- Buttermilk Waffles: To make, replace milk with buttermilk, reduce baking powder to 1 1/2 teaspoons, and add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda.
- Don't overmix the batter, it should be slightly lumpy.
- Preheat the waffle maker and lightly wipe with vegetable oil. Do not use cooking spray.
- Put enough batter in the iron so the waffle compartment is almost full so it will cover the edges when closed.
