Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups milk (or plant-based alternative)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the waffle maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat eggs until slightly frothy, then add milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Gradually pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in chopped strawberries, ensuring even distribution. Optionally, toss strawberries in a teaspoon of flour before adding.
- Lightly grease the waffle maker with butter or non-stick spray.
- Pour the appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the waffle maker and spread slightly. Close the lid.
- Cook for 4–6 minutes or until golden brown and crisp. Adjust cooking time as needed for desired texture.
- Carefully remove waffles and place on a plate or wire rack. Keep warm while cooking remaining batter.
- Serve immediately with optional toppings such as maple syrup, honey, yogurt, or extra strawberries.
Notes
Frozen strawberries can be used but should be thawed and drained.
Waffles can be made ahead and frozen for up to two months.
For crispier waffles, cook a little longer or leave on a wire rack uncovered.
Customize with additional fruits, chocolate chips, or spices.
