Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour, see Cook's Note
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 3/4 cup buttermilk, well-shaken
  • 2 eggs, large
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • maple syrup, jam, berries or yogurt, for serving

Steps

1Make the batter

  1. Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high.
  2. Whisk 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour in a large bowl.
  3. Whisk in 2 tbsp granulated sugar.
  4. Whisk in 1 3/4 tsp baking powder.
  5. Whisk in 1/4 tsp baking soda.
  6. Whisk in 1/4 tsp kosher salt.
  7. Whisk 1 3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk in a medium bowl.
  8. Whisk in 2 large eggs.
  9. Whisk in 2 tsp vanilla extract.
  10. Whisk the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture until a batter is formed.
  11. Whisk in 1 stick unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled, until incorporated, being careful not to overmix the batter.

2Cook the waffles

  1. Spray both sides of the preheated waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Pour in enough batter to lightly cover the surface of the iron, about 1/3 to 3/4 cup, depending on its size; the batter will spread once the lid is closed.
  3. Close the iron and cook until the waffles are a deep golden brown and slightly crisp, about 5 minutes.
  4. Repeat with the remaining batter.

3Serve

  1. Serve the waffles immediately with maple syrup, jam, berries or yogurt.
