Calories 223kcal

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour 240g
¼ cup granulated sugar 50g
2 tablespoons cornstarch packed (24g)
2 teaspoons baking powder 12g
½ teaspoon baking soda 4g
1 teaspoon kosher salt 4g
1 ½ cups milk
¼ cup flavorless oil avocado, vegetable, canola all OK (60g)
2 large eggs ~100g
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 6g

Instructions

Combine flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to combine. Set aside.
Pour the milk, oil, eggs and vanilla extract into a liquid measuring cup or a small bowl. Whisk thoroughly until combined. (The eggs need to be completely incorporated.)
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Stir until just combined. The batter does not need to be completely smooth, so do not mix it until it is smooth or it will be overmixed.
Pour ⅓ cup of the waffle batter into a greased, hot waffle iron. (This will be dependent on the size of your waffle maker, so you might need more or less, and depending on this, you will have more or less waffles. A third of a cup is the correct scoopage for my waffle maker.)
Cook until crispy and cooked through.
Repeat until all the waffles have been made and enjoy!

Notes

Please note that the cook time is an estimate of what it will take to cook a single waffle. This time is dependent on your waffle maker and how long you like to cook your waffles (and how crispy you like the exterior to be.)
