1 tbsp 16.7%*granulated sugar
1⁄2 tsp 2.8%*vanilla extract

Method

Make the batter

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 90 g flour, 30 g cornstarch, 1 tsp baking powder, and 1⁄4 tsp salt
  • In a blender pitcher, blend together 200 g milk, 1 large egg, 42 g butter, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1⁄2 tsp vanilla
  • Transfer the flour mixture into the pitcher and blend until smooth
  • Let the batter rest for ~10 minutes while preheating

Cook waffles

  • Preheat waffle maker
  • Pour half of the batter into the waffle iron, flip and do the other side
  • Cook until golden brown and crispy (usually 4-5 minutes)

Notes

The cornstarch helps create a crispy exterior while keeping the interior light and fluffy. If the batter seems too thick after resting, you can thin it with a little more oat milk.
