EASY Belgian Waffles

Serves: 4 to 6

4 8-inch round waffles

Ingredients

• 2 c all purpose flour

• 4 t baking powder

• 1 T sugar

• 2 large eggs

• 1 t vanilla extract

• 1/2 c butter, melted

• 1 3/4 c milk

• non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. In 1 medium bowl mix together flour, baking powder, and sugar. Set aside.

In a second bowl use a fork to beat the eggs until they have turned a pale yellow. Add the vanilla extract, melted butter, and milk to the eggs and whisk to combine. Combine the egg-milk mixture with the flour mixture and whisk just until blended. It should be the consistency of thick milkshake. If its too thick add about a 1/4c of water and stir well to mix.

Coat the waffle iron with non-stick cooking spray and pour enough batter in iron to just cover waffle grid. My waffle iron uses just over 1 cup for a whole 8 inch waffle. Add any fruit to each section just before closing the lid and cook until golden brown, about 2 to 4 minutes. We like ours extra crispy so on my iron it takes actually just over 4 minutes each. If storing to keep warm place on a rack and do not stack. Serve immediately.
