YIELD 12waffles
Ingredients
1 3/4cupflour
1/4cupcorn starch
1/4cupmalted milk powder
2tablespoonssugar
1tablespoonbaking powder
1/4teaspoonsalt
1 3/4cupmilk
2eggs
1 1/2teaspoonsvanilla
1/2cupvegetable oil
Instructions
To serve the waffles family style, preheat the oven to 200°F. Set a large baking sheet inside the oven to warm through. You'll collect the griddled waffles in the oven as you finish them to keep warm until you've finished the entire batch of batter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients first. Add the flour, cornstarch, malted milk powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt and stir them together until well combined.
In a separate large measuring cup, measure the milk and add the eggs and vanilla. Whisk them together till smooth.
Pour the milk mixture and the vegetable oil into the dry ingredients. Stir everything together until no more dry pockets of flour remain. Your batter may have some small lumps, that's ok. Don't over mix the batter.
Let the waffle batter sit while you preheat the waffle maker according to the appliance directions.
Spray the waffle iron with cooking spray and fill the griddle wells according to the directions for your appliance. For my waffle maker, I use 1/3 cup batter in each well and cook the waffles for 4 minutes.
Transfer the cooked waffles to the oven to keep warm while you finish the rest of the batch.
Recipe Notes
Make Ahead Tips:
To make ahead the waffles for later, let them cool completely on a baking rack. Then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or the freezer up to 6 months. Thaw frozen waffles in the fridge overnight or in the microwave on 50% power for 2 minutes. Toast the waffles in the toaster or bake them on a baking sheet in the oven at 350°F for 3 - 5 minutes to restore the crispy texture.
