Best Waffles

These waffles are so delicious! The oil makes these the right texture between fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Pour some maple syrup on top and it brings it up to another level but bonus if you make the optional whipped cream topping. These were made in a deep pocket waffle maker

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cup all purpose flour- 270g
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Optional Whipped Topping

  • 4 oz full fat cream cheese
  • 3/4 cup confectioners sugar
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4=1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Before you start, whip up the whipped topping if making. In a bowl, add the cream cheese and cream it on high speed for about 30 seconds. add the heavy cream and the rest of the ingredients for filling and whip on high speed until the cream becomes more thick, about a minute. refrigerate.
  • preheat waffle maker according to instructions that come with it
  • in bowl of stand mixer, whisk the eggs and sugar on high speed for 2 minutes, until the eggs look nearly white and are fluffy
  • add the milk, oil and vanilla extract and whisk until combined
  • sift all of the dry ingredients right on top of the bowl containing the egg mixture, like I do in video, and fold or whisk gently until just combined.
  • you can let the batter rest for 10 minutes like I do or you can make the waffles right away. I feel that letting it rest adds to the fluffiness
  • spray your waffle iron with cooking spray and spoon out your batter. I used a 3 tbsp cookie scoop and each waffle pocket help about 6 tbsp's of batter meaning that I had to pour batter twice using that 3 tbsp cookie scoop, in each pocket. See video
  • close your waffle make and let the waffle cook for about 4-5 minutes. It takes 5 minutes on my appliance. You usually know its done when the steam coming out of the waffle maker diminishes
  • once done, scoop out the whipped cream topping on top of the waffles, if using and pour maple syrup. I also sprinkled some crushed pecans.
