  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 10 servings

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar (lightly packed, or granulated sugar)

Wet Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 cups whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted, room temperature)

Others

  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • Syrup (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Begin by bringing all wet ingredients to room temperature to ensure smooth mixing. Whisk together the whole milk and white vinegar and let it rest for 5 minutes to slightly curdle, creating buttermilk.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon (if using), and brown sugar. Whisk them together until evenly mixed.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients Except Butter: Add eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the milk and vinegar mixture. Whisk to combine thoroughly.
  4. Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl. Mix gently with a whisk, then slowly drizzle in the melted butter while continuing to whisk until smooth. Take care not to overmix to maintain light waffles.
  5. Add Chocolate Chips and Rest Batter: Fold in the mini chocolate chips gently. Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes to let the ingredients meld and the batter thicken slightly.
  6. Preheat Waffle Maker: Heat your nonstick waffle maker following the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure it’s fully preheated before cooking.
  7. Cook Waffles: Pour approximately 1/3 cup of batter into each waffle cavity. Cook until waffles are crisp on both sides and cooked fully through the center. Cooking time will vary depending on your waffle maker.
  8. Keep Warm or Serve: To keep waffles warm while continuing to cook the batch, place them in a warm oven. Serve immediately with syrup or your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Note 1: Use your preferred syrup or try maple syrup, chocolate syrup, or fruit compote for serving.
  • Note 2: Bringing wet ingredients to room temperature results in a smoother batter and better rise.
  • Note 3: Letting the batter rest allows the flour to hydrate and air bubbles to form, contributing to fluffier waffles.
  • Note 4: Keeping cooked waffles warm in the oven set to low heat (around 200°F/93°C) helps maintain crispness until serving.
