Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup flour all-purpose or oat
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar optional
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk dairy or non-dairy
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter or neutral oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • Toppings of choice (Greek yogurt and berries, peanut butter and banana, butter and maple syrup, etc.)

Method
 

  1. Turn on your waffle iron and let it get fully hot while you mix. A properly preheated iron is the difference between crisp and sad.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
  3. Pour in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Whisk just until combined. A few small lumps are fine; overmixing makes tough waffles.
  4. Lightly grease the iron if needed, pour in the batter, and close. Cook 3 to 4 minutes until golden and crisp and no more steam escapes.
  5. Move the waffle to a warm plate. Add your toppings, keep the portion modest, and enjoy while it's hot.
