Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh peaches, diced
- Optional: Whipped cream and syrup for serving
Instructions
- Preheat Waffle Iron: Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure it is hot and ready for the batter.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly, then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
- Add Peaches: Carefully fold the diced fresh peaches into the batter, distributing them evenly.
- Prepare Waffle Iron: Lightly grease the waffle iron surface with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
- Cook Waffles: Pour the batter onto the preheated waffle iron using a ladle or measuring cup. Close the lid and cook following your waffle iron’s instructions, typically 3-5 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown and crisp.
- Serve: Remove the cooked waffles from the iron. Serve warm topped with whipped cream, syrup, or additional fresh peach slices for added flavor and appeal.
Notes
- Be careful not to overmix the batter to maintain waffle fluffiness.
- Fresh peaches can be substituted with frozen peaches if fresh are out of season; just thaw and drain excess liquid before adding.
- Adjust cooking time according to your waffle iron for best results.
- Waffles can be kept warm in a low oven while cooking the remaining batter.
- For extra crispiness, leave the waffles in the iron a bit longer but watch closely to prevent burning.
