Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the waffle iron and brush it with melted butter.
  • In a large bowl whisk together the flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  • To the flour mixture, add the buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs, and stir until well combined.
  • Pour some batter onto the hot waffle iron, making sure it fills all the crevices.
  • Close the lid and bake the waffles until golden brown, or to your preferred level of doneness.
    Butter the iron in between batches, as needed.
  • Remove cooked waffles from the waffle maker.
  • Serve waffles with a dusting of powdered sugar, maple syrup, fresh berries, or any toppings of your choice.

Notes

  • Cooking Waffles: Drop it while it's hot. A hot iron, that is. This will ensure that the waffles won't stick to the iron, AND they will turn out golden brown plus crispy. Win win. 
  • Cornstarch: For a perfectly crispy, yet tender waffle, don't forget the cornstarch.
  • Use Baking Powder NOT Baking Soda. 
  • Keep Warm: While cooking the rest of the waffles, place previously cooked waffles on a baking sheet and keep in the oven on the "Warm" setting, or between 180˚F and 200˚F.
