Notes

  • If your baking powder amount wasn’t measured, 1 tbsp (12 g) is a reliable starting point for this flour quantity.
  • For crispier waffles, cook to a deeper golden color and avoid stacking while hot.
  • To keep warm while cooking a batch, place waffles on a wire rack in a 200°F (95°C) oven.
  • Milk: Whole milk is best, but 2% works.
  • Butter: Let melted butter cool slightly before mixing in.
