Preparation Steps
1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, grated orange zest, and a pinch of salt.
2
In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then add the milk, melted butter, fresh orange juice, and vanilla extract.
3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined and the batter is smooth, with no lumps.
4
Preheat your waffle iron to medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil.
5
Pour a portion of batter onto the center of the hot waffle iron (about one ladleful), close the lid, and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
6
Once done, carefully remove the waffle with a spatula and place it on a wire rack to cool slightly, ensuring it stays crispy.
7
Serve fresh, dusted with powdered sugar, and garnished with orange slices or a drizzle of honey.
