Ingredients

  • 2 cups Organic All Purpose Flour
  • 3 Tablespoons Cane Sugar Or Maple Syrup
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Unrefined Sea Salt
  • ½ cups Salted Butter, Melted
  • 1-¾ cup Buttermilk
  • 2  Large Eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
  • Fresh Strawberries, Blueberries, And Whipped Cream, For Serving
  • Butter And Maple Syrup, For Serving (optional)

Preparation

In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

In another medium-sized bowl, whisk melted butter, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla until well combined.

Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour the wet ingredients into it. Very gently whisk it all together just until combined (batter will still be lumpy).

Cook waffles according to your waffle maker instructions. I cooked mine on medium-high heat for about 4 minutes, or until golden.

Serve immediately with butter, maple syrup, strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream.

Notes:
1. I use a heaping 1/3 cup to fill each square of my waffle maker, then spread it out a bit with a heat-proof spatula. I get about 12-14 squares of waffles per batch, but it will all depend on the size of your waffle maker.
2. I usually make my own buttermilk by placing 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of vinegar in a measuring cup and filling to the 1 3/4-cup mark. I then pour it into the empty but still-warm pan that I used to melt the butter. This makes the milk split and get thick.
