Belgian Waffle

Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 3/4 cups milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:
Preheat the Waffle Iron: Heat your Belgian waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then stir in the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Mixtures: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.

Cook the Waffles: Pour the batter into the preheated waffle iron, using a ladle or measuring cup (about 1 cup of batter per waffle, depending on your iron's size). Close the lid and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 4-5 minutes, until golden brown and crisp.

Serve: Carefully remove the waffles and serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, whipped cream, fruit, or chocolate chips.

Cooking Time:
