1. Waffle Ingredients
You likely already have all the ingredients you’ll need for this waffle recipe. If not, here’s what to add to your grocery list:
· Eggs: This waffle recipe starts with two whole eggs, whisked until light and fluffy.
· Flour: All-purpose flour adds gluten, which gives the waffles structure. You can also use whole wheat flour.
· Milk: Whole milk lends richness and moisture. Plus, it helps create the ideal batter consistency.
· Oil: A neutral oil, such as vegetable oil, ensures the waffles are nice and moist.
· Sugar: A tablespoon of white sugar adds the perfect amount of sweetness.
· Baking powder: Baking powder acts as a leavener, which means it contributes to the waffles’ light and fluffy texture.
· Salt: A pinch of salt enhances the other flavors. Don’t skip this step!
· Vanilla: A dash of vanilla adds complexity and enhances the overfall flavor.
· Cooking spray: You’ll need to spray the iron with nonstick cooking spray before you start making the waffles.

Allow the leftover waffles to cool, then transfer them to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to three days. For best results, reheat in a toaster or toaster oven.

There’s no need to thaw — reheat them the way you would store-bought frozen waffles (in the toaster or microwave).
