Time 35m

Yield About 8 waffles

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 1/2 cups milk
4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, plus more for brushing waffle iron
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening, melted
2 large eggs
Pure maple syrup, soft unsalted butter, confectioners' sugar or fruit preserves, for topping

Steps:

Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F (to keep cooked waffles warm). Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Whisk together the milk, butter, shortening and eggs in another bowl. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and gently stir until just incorporated (it's okay if there are some lumps).
Lightly brush the top and bottom of the waffle iron with butter. Fill the waffle iron about three-quarters of the way full (some waffle iron should still be showing). Close the lid gently and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, 6 to 7 minutes. Keep the cooked waffles warm in the oven or covered with foil on a plate while you make the remaining waffles.
Serve with maple syrup, butter, sugar or fruit preserves.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Maple syrup and butter, as desired, for serving

Steps:

Preheat waffle iron according to manufacturer's instructions. In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk milk and eggs; pour over flour mixture, and whisk gently to combine (don't overmix). Gently whisk in butter.
Following manufacturer's instructions, cook waffles until deep brown and crisp. (For a standard waffle iron, pour a generous 1/2 cup of batter into center, spreading to within 1/2 inch of edges, and close; waffle will cook in 2 to 3 minutes.) Serve warm, with maple syrup and butter, as desired.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your waffles. Look for organic or locally-sourced ingredients whenever possible.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the waffles tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Let the batter rest for a few minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, which will make the waffles more tender.
Preheat your waffle iron. A hot waffle iron is essential for crispy, golden brown waffles.
Don't overcrowd the waffle iron. Cooking too many waffles at once will make them soggy.
Cook the waffles until they are golden brown. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of waffle iron you are using, so check the manufacturer's instructions.
Serve the waffles immediately with your favorite toppings. Waffles are best enjoyed fresh and warm.

Conclusion:

Waffles are a delicious and versatile breakfast food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little practice, you can make perfect waffles at home. Experiment with different recipes and toppings to find your favorite combination. Enjoy!
