Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, these classic waffles are a breakfast favorite that pairs perfectly with syrup, butter, or fresh fruit.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk, oil or melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or butter.
- Pour batter into the preheated waffle iron, using the recommended amount for your waffle maker.

Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough waffles.
