Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fresh Fruit

  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped (plus extra for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: Start by combining the dry ingredients—flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt—in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mix and stir just until combined; a few lumps are fine to keep the batter tender. Gently fold in chopped fresh strawberries, saving a few for topping.
  2. Preheat Your Waffle Iron: Turn on your waffle iron and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray to ensure your waffles don’t stick. It should be nice and hot before you add the batter to get those perfect crisp edges.
  3. Cook the Waffles: Spoon the batter onto the center of the waffle iron, spreading gently if needed. Close the lid and cook according to your machine’s instructions—usually about 3 to 5 minutes—until waffles are golden and crispy.
  4. Serve and Enjoy: Carefully remove the waffles and serve them warm with fresh strawberry slices, a drizzle of maple syrup, or your favorite toppings like whipped cream or yogurt. Enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor!

Notes

  • Don’t overmix: Stir the batter just enough to combine ingredients for tender waffles.
  • Use fresh strawberries: Fresh fruit adds moisture and bursts of flavor compared to frozen.
  • Preheat properly: A well-heated waffle iron ensures crisp, golden waffles every time.
  • Keep waffles warm: Place cooked waffles on a baking sheet in a low oven (about 200°F) while cooking the rest.
  • Customize toppings: Use fresh herbs like mint or a squeeze of lemon for a bright finish.
