Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Self Rising Flour (sifted recommended)
  • 1/2 cup Corn Starch
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 3 tbsp Granulated Sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Milk (2% or whole recommended)
  • 1/2 cup Buttermilk
  • 1/3 cup Extra Light Olive Oil (or melted butter)
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dry Ingredients: Sift the self-rising flour and cornstarch together into a medium mixing bowl. Whisk to combine thoroughly, breaking up any lumps.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, milk, buttermilk, eggs, salt, and vanilla extract until fully blended.
  3. Mix Batter: Gradually add the flour and cornstarch mixture into the wet ingredients, whisking gently to combine. Avoid overmixing; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
  4. Rest the Batter: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the batter for at least 30 minutes to allow the ingredients to meld and improve texture.
  5. Preheat Waffle Iron: While the batter rests, preheat your waffle iron. If necessary, lightly brush it with oil to prevent sticking.
  6. Cook Waffles: Remove batter from the fridge and use a large cookie scoop to pour batter into the waffle iron, one square at a time. Cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until the waffles are golden brown and crispy, typically at a heat setting around 4.5 to 5.
  7. Keep Warm: Remove cooked waffles carefully using non-stick tongs and place them in a preheated oven at 200°F to keep warm and maintain crispiness. You can place them directly on the rack or on a wire rack over a baking sheet.
  8. Serve: Once all waffles are cooked, add your favorite toppings such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade crispy waffles!

Notes

  • Resting the batter improves the waffle texture, making them lighter and crispier.
  • Using extra light olive oil instead of butter gives a crispier waffle, but butter can be used for a richer flavor.
  • Sifting the flour ensures a smoother batter and lighter waffles.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough waffles; a few lumps are fine.
  • Keeping waffles warm in the oven prevents them from getting soggy before serving.
  • For fluffier waffles, ensure your buttermilk is fresh to activate the leavening in the self-rising flour.
