Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Brown the Butter

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the butter turns golden brown and develops a nutty aroma. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well combined.

Waffle Batter

  1. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and the browned butter (make sure it is slightly cooled). Mix until well combined.

  2. 4

    Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be slightly lumpy.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Preheat Waffle Iron

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

  2. 6

    Cook the Waffles

    Once the waffle iron is preheated, lightly grease it with cooking spray or brush with oil. Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the hot waffle iron, close the lid, and cook for about 4-6 minutes or until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruits, or whipped cream.
