FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What waffle iron is best to make homemade waffles? I have a basic 8-inch belgian waffle iron. If using a different style‚ cooking times may vary. They are done when puffed up and golden brown all over. Here is the waffle iron I have (paid affiliate link) How do I prevent my Buttermilk Waffles from getting soggy? Once you make them and remove them from the waffle iron‚ make sure to use a wire rack over a sheet tray to put the homemade waffles on so they can stay crispy and not release steam into each other and get soggy. Our instinct is to cover them up to keep them warm but that ends up creating steam which makes them soft. What if I don’t have buttermilk? Keep in mind that this recipe was tested with real buttermilk and real buttermilk only. But if you need to make your own homemade buttermilk‚ you can try it by adding some vinegar or lemon juice to your milk. You can use heavy cream or whole milk‚ but nothing skimmer. Heavy cream is similar in thickness like buttermilk. Whole milk is much thinner than buttermilk‚ so if you use this‚ you may not need the entire 2 cups. You’ll have to adjust as you see fit. Again‚ I tested this recipe with real buttermilk‚ so these are my best guesses to use as a substitution. Can I make flavored waffles? You bet. I love fancying up these homemade waffles. You can add mix-ins like‚ blueberries‚ nuts‚ or chocolate chips to your waffle batter. How to store Buttermilk Waffles? Leftover waffles should be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days or can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months. Place the leftovers on the wire rack in the oven or in the air fryer to reheat them.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)
all-purpose flour
baking powder
granulated sugar
large eggs
buttermilk
salted butter
vanilla extract
HOW TO MAKE BUTTERMILK WAFFLES
In a large bowl‚ whisk together the flour‚ baking powder‚ and sugar. In a medium bowl‚ whisk together the eggs‚ buttermilk‚ melted butter‚ and vanilla until smooth. Add the wet mixture to the dry and whisk until just combined with no lumps. Allow the batter to rest for 15 minutes.
Prepare oven for warming‚ 170°F. Heat a waffle iron over medium heat. Lightly spray the iron with cooking spray. For a 8-inch waffle maker‚ add a heaping ½ cup of batter and gently smooth it out to the edge. Close the lid. Cook for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the waffle and place it on a wire rack over a sheet tray. Place into the warming oven while you make the additional waffles. Add the next finished waffle to the wire rack in the oven to keep warm until they are all cooked. Serve immediately with butter and maple syrup if desired.

Notes
Please refer to my FAQ’s (Frequently Asked Questions) and ingredient list above for other substitutions or for the answers to the most common questions.
Note: I usually use an olive oil nonstick cooking spray for using a waffle iron or air fryer because I find it doesn’t gunk it up like other nonstick sprays.Â
