Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 egg
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup melted butter
Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Finishing Ingredients:
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium mixing bowl, creating a dry ingredient base that will provide structure and lift to the waffles.
- Whisk egg, sugar, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until the mixture becomes smooth and fully integrated.
- Gently fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stirring minimally to prevent developing tough waffle texture – small lumps are acceptable.
- Heat waffle iron and lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray to ensure easy waffle release and golden exterior.
- Pour batter into waffle iron, distributing evenly across the cooking surface to create uniform waffles with consistent thickness.
- Cook waffles for approximately 5-7 minutes, monitoring color and texture until they reach a rich golden-brown appearance and are crisp on the outside.
- Prepare glaze by whisking powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until achieving a silky, pourable consistency with no visible sugar granules.
- Remove freshly cooked waffles from iron and immediately dunk one side into the glaze, allowing excess to drip back into the bowl for an even coating.
- Transfer glazed waffles to a serving plate, presenting them while still warm to maximize flavor and textural enjoyment.
Notes
- Crafting these waffles feels like a weekend breakfast adventure with unexpected donut-like sweetness.
- Whisking ingredients separately ensures fluffy texture and prevents lumpy batter complications.
- Glazing technique mimics classic donut shop style, transforming ordinary waffles into decadent morning treats.
