Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup brown sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 large eggs

1 3/4 cups milk

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Maple syrup for serving

Powdered sugar for topping

Whipped cream for topping

Instructions

1. Preheat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions and lightly grease if needed.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined.

3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until frothy, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix the batter.

5. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to improve the waffle texture.

6. Pour the batter into the hot waffle iron using the recommended amount for your waffle maker.

7. Cook the waffles for 4 to 6 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

8. Transfer cooked waffles to a wire rack or warm oven to keep them crisp while preparing the remaining waffles.

9. Serve warm with maple syrup, powdered sugar, whipped cream, or your favorite toppings.

Notes

Avoid overmixing the batter because it can make the waffles dense instead of fluffy.

Letting the batter rest before cooking helps create lighter waffles with a better texture.

Reheat leftover waffles in a toaster or oven instead of a microwave to maintain crispy edges.
