Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Preheat the Waffle Iron

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

Mix Dry Ingredients

In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until combined.

Mix Wet Ingredients

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Combine Mixtures

Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron (about 1/2 to 3/4 cup, depending on your iron) and close the lid. Cook until golden brown and crisp, usually about 4-5 minutes.

Cook the Waffles

Remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with your choice of toppings.
