There are a lot of great recipes for that here on Zaar!! Note: the original recipe states this makes 12 waffles. When I made mine I only got 6 waffles out of the batter.

Tips:

  • Use the right ingredients: Make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and that they are fresh. Use high-quality flour, baking powder, sugar, butter, eggs, and milk.
  • Measure accurately: Use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients for the most accurate results.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough waffles. Mix just until the ingredients are combined and there are no lumps.
  • Let the batter rest: Allowing the batter to rest for a few minutes before cooking will help the waffles rise more.
  • Use a hot waffle iron: Preheat your waffle iron to the desired temperature before cooking. This will help ensure that the waffles cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the waffle iron: Pour just enough batter onto the waffle iron to cover the surface. Overcrowding the waffle iron will result in undercooked waffles.
  • Cook the waffles until golden brown: Cook the waffles until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Serve immediately: Waffles are best served hot and fresh. Top them with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
