Ingredients

  • 2 cups 250 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon 2 grams Diamond Crystal kosher salt; for table salt, use half as much by volume or use the same weight
  • 1 3/4 cups milk room temperature
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups Fruity Pebbles

Instructions

  • Preheat the waffle maker to medium-high heat. Preheat oven to 200°F (93°C). Place a wire rack on a baking sheet; set aside.
  • In a large bowl whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract together. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and then whisk gently until combined. Do not over-mix. Some small lumps are OK.
  • Grease the preheated waffle maker (I use nonstick spray). Pour a heaping 1/2 cup of the batter into each well of the waffle maker (or less if your waffle maker is smaller) and close the lid. Cook the waffles until crisp, about 4–5 minutes. (Follow the cooking instructions for your waffle maker.) Transfer the cooked waffles to the wire rack and keep warm in the preheated oven as you cook the rest. Repeat to cook the remaining batter.
  • Serve the waffles immediately with butter and maple syrup, or your choice of toppings.

Notes

Ahead-of-Time Tips: While these waffles shine brightest when fresh, they can also be frozen once cooled for up to 3 months, making for a quick breakfast option later on. Just reheat them in the oven to bring back that freshly made taste.
Choosing Your Waffle Maker: This recipe works well with both Belgian and traditional waffle makers. Keep in mind, the suggested cooking time is an estimate; always refer to your specific waffle maker's guidelines for the best results.
