How to make Gaufres Françaises (Classic French Waffles)
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 250 g all-purpose flour, 50 g granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate medium bowl, lightly beat 2 large eggs. Then, whisk in 350 ml whole milk, 75 g melted unsalted butter, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Whisk gently until just combined; do not overmix. A few small lumps are acceptable, as overmixing can lead to tough waffles.
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly brush the cooking plates with a small amount of vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
- Pour approximately 1/2 to 3/4 cup of batter (depending on your waffle iron's size) onto the hot waffle iron, spreading it gently to the edges.
- Close the lid and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and crispy. The cooking time may vary based on your waffle iron.
- Carefully remove the cooked waffle with a fork or tongs and transfer it to a wire rack to prevent it from becoming soggy. If serving immediately, you can keep them warm in a preheated oven at 200°F (90°C) while you finish cooking the remaining waffles.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, greasing the waffle iron as needed between batches.
- Serve the Gaufres Françaises immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, whipped cream, powdered sugar, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.
