Prep Time: 10min                                        Cook Time: 5min                                              Serves: 6-8     

Ingredients

  • 2 ¼  cups all-purpose flour 
  •  ¼  cups granulated sugar 
  • 1 ½  tsp. baking powder
  •  ½  tsp. baking soda 
  • 1/2 tsp. salt 
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1  stick of melted butter 
  •  2 Tbsp. vanilla extract 
  •  ½  tsp. almond extract (optional)
  • 2 whole eggs beaten 

 

Note: For a yummy & easy waffle option, I use Krusteaz Waffle Mix. Follow instructions on the box with the following exceptions: 

 

  • Add milk or coffee creamer instead of water 
  • ½ cup melted butter 
  • 1 Tbsp. sugar 
  • 2 Tbsp. Vanilla extract  
  • ½ tsp. almond extract 

 

If the batter appears too thick, add a dash of milk to get the consistency right, but not too much. Consistency should be similar to Elmer’s liquid glue. Double additions for each increase in batch size.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Belgian waffle maker. 
  2. Brush generously with melted butter or cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Create well in the center.
  4. Pour the remaining ingredients into the well of the dry ingredients- milk, melted butter, vanilla, almond flavor, and eggs (mix first). 
  5. Whisk to incorporate and create a batter. If it seems too thick, add in an extra splash of milk.
  6. Pour about ½  cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron. 
  7. Close and cook according to waffle maker instructions. If using a waffle iron that makes four waffles simultaneously, don’t use as much batter to avoid overflowing. 
  8. Repeat with the remaining batter until all waffles have been cooked.

 

You can serve warm with berries, bananas, whipped cream, powdered sugar, maple syrup, and/or butter.
