Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, these classic homemade waffles are quick, easy, and perfect for breakfast or brunch. Customize them with your favorite mix-ins and toppings for a delicious meal any day of the week.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup melted butter or oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and stir in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract (if using).
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy—do not overmix.
  5. Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with oil or non-stick spray.
  6. Pour batter into the waffle iron and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
  7. Remove waffles and serve warm with desired toppings.

Notes

  • For crispier waffles, avoid stacking and place cooked waffles on a wire rack.
  • Use buttermilk instead of milk for a tangier flavor and fluffier texture.
  • Freeze extra waffles for a quick, homemade breakfast option.
  • Don’t overmix the batter—some lumps are fine and will yield fluffier waffles.
  • Reheat waffles in the toaster or oven to maintain crispiness.
