Waffle Recipe For Waffle Maker
In official taste tests, these Homemade Waffles beat both the local diner waffles and anything made from a boxed mix. Top them with plenty of butter and maple syrup or whipped cream and fresh fruit to make every square shine!

Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (see note 1)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs beaten
- 1 1/2 cups milk (see note 2)
- 8 tablespoons butter melted (1 stick)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- maple syrup and butter or whipped cream and fresh fruit, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat waffle iron. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the dry ingredients.
- To the well, add eggs, milk, butter, and vanilla. Gently whisk together until combined (the batter should have a pebbled look, similar to a muffin batter).
- Add 1/2 cup batter (or the amount recommended by your waffle iron's instructions) onto heated waffle iron. Using a spatula, wooden spoon, or ladle, spread the batter to within 1/4-inch of the edge of the grids.
- Close the lid and bake until the waffle is golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately or keep warm while preparing remaining waffles.

Notes
- Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. My favorite way to reheat them is in the toaster.
- Baking powder: Just 1 tablespoon of this chemical leavener is enough to generate bubbles in the waffle batter to help make each Classic Waffle light and fluffy.
- Milk: Cow’s milk or any milk alternative, such as cashew, almond, oat, or soy. Any fat level will do, from skim to whole.
- Yield: This Homemade Waffle recipe makes 6 to 8 waffles depending on the exact dimensions of your waffle maker.
- Storage: Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. My favorite way to reheat them is in the toaster.
