Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups (250 grams) all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons (45 grams) powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon (2 grams) Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight
  • ½ teaspoon (3 grams) baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon (2 grams) baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons (40 grams) melted unsalted butter
  • 1 ¾ cups (395 grams) cultured low-fat buttermilk, room temperature
  • 2 large (70 grams) egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (150 grams) Nutella

Nutella Maple Syrup

  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • ¼ cup nutella
  • ¼ teaspoon (1 gram) Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight

Instructions
 

  • Set waffle iron to medium and preheat until the indicator is ready.
  • Whisk all-purpose flour, powdered sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a large bowl.
  • Add melted butter, buttermilk, egg whites, vanilla extract and Nutella, whisk until smooth.
  • For a 7-inch Belgian machine, pour in a heaping 1/2 cup.
  • Close lid and cook until waffle is golden brown but still steaming, 4 1/2 to 6 minutes depending on the depth and heat of your machine.
  • Serve immediately and serve with Nutella maple syrup.

Nutella Maple Syrup

  • Whisk maple syrup, Nutella, and salt in a medium sized bowl until combined.

Notes

  • Storage TIPS To maintain the quality and freshness of waffles, it is best to store them separately from the syrup. Add the syrup just before serving. This ensures that the waffles remain crisp.
    Cool the Nutella waffles completely before storing them to prevent condensation and moisture buildup.
    • Leftovers.  Place the waffles in an airtight container or tightly wrap them with plastic wrap to preserve their freshness and prevent drying out. If you have multiple waffles, layer them with parchment paper or wax paper in between to prevent sticking. Store the waffles in the refrigerator if you plan to consume them within two days. Make sure you seal the container tightly to maintain its quality.
    • Freezing. To freeze, layer them with parchment paper or wax paper in between to prevent sticking, and place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Label the container with the date for freshness tracking. Consume the frozen waffles within 1 to 2 months for the best taste and texture. After that period, they may still be safe to eat but could lose quality.
    • To reheat: Remove the waffles from the refrigerator or freezer and let them come to room temperature for a few minutes. Reheat the waffles in an oven or toaster oven until they warm through. This will help them regain their crispness.
  • For the Nutella Maple syrup: Store in the refrigerator and reheat in the microwave when ready to use.
