Preparation Steps
1
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Allow it to cool slightly so it's not too hot when added to the batter.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and a pinch of salt.
3
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the milk and vanilla extract.
4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined, ensuring there are no lumps.
5
Gradually add the melted butter, mixing well to create a light and airy batter.
6
Preheat your waffle iron and lightly grease it with oil or butter.
7
Pour a portion of batter (about one ladleful) into the center of the preheated waffle iron. Close the lid and cook until golden brown, approximately 3-4 minutes.
8
Once cooked, carefully remove the waffle with a spatula and place it on a wire rack to cool slightly, which will help it stay crispy.
9
Serve with powdered sugar, whipped cream, fresh fruit, or chocolate sauce.
