Waffle House-Style Waffles (Copycat)

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the iron and serving
• 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• Berries and maple syrup, for serving

Steps

1. Stir the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking soda, and baking powder together in a large bowl.
2. In another bowl, whisk the egg, sugar, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Whisk in the milk and buttermilk.
3. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ones until just mixed. A few lumps are fine.
4. Heat your waffle iron. Brush it with a little butter and add about 1/2 cup batter.
5. Cook 4–6 minutes, until golden and crispy. Serve right away with butter, berries, and syrup.
