Method
- Preheat your waffle iron according to its instructions.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- Add the milk, beaten egg portion, and melted butter. Stir gently until just combined—do not overmix. Let the batter rest for 2 minutes.
- Pour the batter into the hot waffle iron and cook following the manufacturer's directions until golden and crisp.
💡 Tips
- For extra crispiness, let the waffle rest on a wire rack for a minute after cooking.
- If using buttermilk, the waffle will be slightly tangier and more tender.
- To easily measure 1/3 of an egg, beat one egg in a small bowl and use about 1 tablespoon of it.
