Ingredients

• 1 3/4 cups unbleached all purpose flour
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3 eggs
• 8 tbsp melted butter (room temperature)
• 1 1/2 cups 2% milk

Let’s Get Cooking!

Start by warming up your waffle iron so it’s ready when the batter is done. In a big mixing bowl, whisk together some flour, baking powder, a touch of sugar, and a little sea salt. This is the dry part of your batter, and it sets the stage for that perfect waffle texture.

In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs, melted butter (I like using the olive oil blend butter from Land O’Lakes), and milk. I usually use low-fat milk, but you can use what you have on hand. Make sure the butter has cooled a bit before mixing, so it doesn’t cook the eggs!

Now, make a little well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients right into it. Give everything a gentle stir—just enough to mix. Don’t worry if there are a few lumps. The batter should be thick like muffin batter, but not too smooth. That’s the secret to fluffy waffles!

Most waffle irons need about a heaping half cup of batter per waffle. Close the lid and cook until the waffle turns a light golden brown and smells amazing. Serve them warm with real maple syrup, fresh fruit, or even sugar-free syrup if you prefer.

These waffles are simple, delicious, and perfect for making sweet memories with your grandkids. Enjoy every bite—and every giggle that comes with them!

My Waffle Maker Suggestion

I absolutely love using this mini waffle maker—it’s just the cutest little thing! The waffles come out so tiny and adorable, and the grandkids get such a kick out of them.

Now, I’ll be honest—it does take a bit longer to make a full batch since it only cooks one at a time. But the sweet little waffles are totally worth the wait!

If you don’t have a mini waffle maker, no worries at all! You can still make this recipe with any regular waffle iron. Just use a smaller amount of batter and follow the instructions that came with your machine.

Either way, your waffles will turn out tasty and full of love.
