Crisp Waffles
Serves 1
Directions
- 1Get your waffle iron out and start preheating it.
- 2Melt 1/2 cup (113 grams) of butter in a small dish, such as a liquid measuring cup, using a microwave.
- 3In a bowl, combine 2 1/4 cups (270 grams) of all-purpose flour, 3/4 teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1/4 cup (50 grams) of granulated sugar.
- 4Whisk the dry ingredients together and set aside.
- 5In a medium bowl, add 2 large room temperature eggs, 2 teaspoons of vanilla, and the melted butter.
- 6Whisk the wet ingredients together.
- 7Add 2 cups of whole milk to the wet ingredients and whisk until combined.
- 8Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients.
- 9Whisk until the batter is just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- 10Once your waffle iron is preheated, add about 1/3 cup of batter to each waffle, adjusting the quantity based on your waffle maker's instructions (e.g., larger Belgian style waffle makers will need more batter).
- 11Close the waffle iron and cook until the waffles are done. If your iron doesn't have a timer, check the steam; when it dissipates, the waffle is likely ready.
- 12Remove waffles and place them on a cooling rack to keep them crisp.
- 13Allow the waffle iron to reheat until it's screaming hot before adding the next batch of batter.
- 14Serve with maple syrup, butter, honey, or jam.
- 15For leftover waffles, place them in a plastic bag and freeze for up to a month or two. Reheat in a toaster when ready to eat.

Tips
- You can freeze the waffles for later; just pop them into the toaster in the morning for an instant treat.
- Do not overmix your batter.
- To get waffles that stay crisp, cool them on a wire rack to prevent softening from steam.
- Let your waffle iron heat up to be screaming hot between waffles for crisp results.
