Total Time: 20 mins
Cuisine: Breakfast
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup multi-grain flour
- 1 cup milk
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are at room temperature for optimal blending.
- Add milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and honey to a blender pitcher. Blend on medium speed for 30 seconds to combine wet ingredients thoroughly.
- Add multi-grain flour, baking powder, and salt to the blender. Pulse 6-8 times until ingredients are just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Let the batter rest for 3-5 minutes to allow flour to fully hydrate and create a smooth consistency.
- Preheat waffle iron to medium-high heat and lightly grease cooking surfaces with non-stick spray or melted butter.
- Pour approximately 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter into the center of the preheated waffle iron, spreading gently if needed.
- Close waffle iron and cook for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, with steam reducing significantly.
- Carefully remove waffle using a non-metal utensil and place on a wire rack to maintain crispness.
- Repeat with remaining batter, re-greasing waffle iron between batches as needed.
- Serve immediately with desired toppings like fresh berries, maple syrup, or whipped cream.
Tips
- Room Temperature Ingredients: For the best results, ensure all your ingredients are at room temperature. This helps them blend more smoothly and creates a better batter consistency.
- Don’t Overmix: When adding the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, pulse just enough to combine. Overmixing can lead to tough waffles, so keep it gentle!
- Rest the Batter: Allowing the batter to rest for 3-5 minutes is crucial. This step helps the flour hydrate fully, resulting in a smoother batter and fluffier waffles.
- Preheat the Waffle Iron: Make sure your waffle iron is preheated to medium-high before pouring in the batter. This ensures a crispy exterior while keeping the inside light and airy.
- Grease the Iron: Lightly greasing the waffle iron with non-stick spray or melted butter between batches will help prevent sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Keep Waffles Crisp: Place cooked waffles on a wire rack instead of stacking them on a plate. This prevents steam from making them soggy, keeping them crispy until serving.
- Topping Ideas: Get creative with your toppings! Fresh fruits, yogurt, nut butter, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar can take your waffles to the next level.
