The History of Waffles + Classic Waffle Recipe

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; a few lumps are okay.

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or a brush of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron using about half a cup for each waffle. Adjust based on the size of your waffle iron.

Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, usually about three to five minutes.

Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream.
