Mini Waffles
These mini waffles are crispy on the outside, fluffy in the middle, and just the right size for little hands. They're perfect to batch-make, freeze, and reheat for those busy mornings.
Servings: 8 mini waffles
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp neutral oil
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the mini waffle iron.
- In a bowl, mix the milk, egg, melted butter or oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until combined.
- To the same bowl, add the flour, baking powder, and salt, and mix until just combined.
- Pour a little less than 1/4 cup of the batter into the mini waffle iron and cook it until the steam slows down and golden brown, about 3 minutes.
- Place finished waffles on a wire rack instead of stacking so they don’t steam and soften.
Notes
- Don’t overmix the batter. Stir just until combined. A few small lumps are okay and will keep the waffles tender instead of dense.
- 'Don’t overfill the mini waffle maker. About 3 tablespoons of batter per mini waffle is plenty to avoid spillovers. If you want to save on time, you can use this multi-mini waffle maker that cooks 4 mini waffles at once.
- Wait until the steam slows down before opening the waffle maker. This helps the waffles cook through and crisp up.
- Place cooked waffles on a rack instead of stacking so they don’t get soggy from trapped steam.
