Tall, golden, deep-pocketed waffles with crisp edges and fluffy centers. Butter melting into the squares, maple syrup pooling everywhere.

Ingredients

• 125 g All-purpose flour
• 240 ml Buttermilk
• Egg × 1
• 60 g Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 tbsp Granulated sugar
• 1.5 tsp Baking powder
• 0.5 tsp Baking soda
• 0.5 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 1 tbsp Butter (for serving)
• 60 ml Pure maple syrup

Method

1. Mix the dry

   

   Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.

2. Mix the wet

   

   In a separate bowl, whisk buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla until smooth.

3. Combine

   

   Pour wet into dry and fold gently with a spatula until just combined — a few lumps are fine. Don't overmix.

4. Heat waffle iron

   

   Heat waffle iron and lightly grease.

5. Ladle in batter

   

   Ladle in batter, close, and cook 4-5 minutes until deeply golden and crisp. Don't peek early.

6. Stack 2 waffles

   

   Stack 2 waffles on a plate.

7. Place a pat of butter

   

   Place a pat of butter in the middle so it melts into the squares.

8. Pour maple syrup

   

   Pour maple syrup generously over the top.
