  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4-6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1¾ cups milk (preferably whole milk)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Food coloring (optional, for a fun, colorful twist)
  • Whimsical toppings such as whipped cream, fresh berries, or chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture, stirring gently until a smooth, lump-free batter forms. Add food coloring if desired for vibrant, fairytale-inspired waffles.
  4. Preheat your waffle iron to a medium-high setting and lightly grease with butter or non-stick spray.
  5. Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, close the lid, and cook for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
  6. Transfer the waffles to a serving plate and top with whipped cream, berries, chocolate chips, or other fun toppings. Add edible glitter or sprinkles for a magical finishing touch.

Notes

  • For extra vibrant waffles, divide the batter into portions and add different food colors to each before cooking for a rainbow effect.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, then reheat in a toaster for crispness.
  • For vegan options, use plant-based milk and egg substitutes like flaxseed or chia seeds mixed with water.
