This Classic Waffle Recipe makes perfectly crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside waffles that are to die for!
We love to pair these waffles with my Golden Buttermilk Syrup and fresh fruits. It’s a match made in heaven.
We have been making these delicious classic waffles non stop at our house. I’m not joking when I say that my kids request them every weekend.
My recipe is so simple that even my kids can make these without any help from me.
I figured I better share this awesome recipe with you all, just in case you’re looking for THE BEST waffles out there!
In my humble opinion, these waffles are the best because the batter is super quick to prepare (no beating egg whites and folding them into a batter). You can mix the whole thing up with a simple whisk or fork!
The texture of the waffles are crisp on the outside with a delightfully fluffy inside, with a hint of butter and vanilla throughout. They really are magical.
I actually found this recipe on AllRecipes and fell in love with it the first time I tried it.
Yup, that’s it! And here’s why – the warm milk allows the melted butter to stay in a liquid, without seizing up and clumping. This means the butter is woven beautifully through each and every waffle, every little waffle pocket and you can really taste it!
To warm the milk, I simply measure it out into a microwaveable measuring cup and heat it in the microwave for just 1 minute. You don’t want it hot, just warm.
