Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat recommended)
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter or oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Mix The Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar to evenly distribute everything and prepare the base of your waffle batter.
  2. Combine The Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the Greek yogurt, milk, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth and creamy.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and gently fold together, mixing just until combined to avoid overworking the batter, which could make the waffles tough.
  4. Preheat and Grease Your Waffle Iron: Heat your waffle iron to medium-high and lightly brush or spray it with melted butter or oil to prevent sticking and help create a golden crust.
  5. Cook the Waffles: Pour batter onto the waffle iron, using about ½ cup per waffle. Close and cook according to your waffle maker’s instructions until golden brown and crisp.
  6. Serve Warm and Enjoy: Transfer waffles to a plate and serve immediately with your choice of toppings, savoring that perfect combination of tangy, fluffy, and crispy texture.

Notes

  • Don’t overmix the batter to ensure light, tender waffles; a few lumps are fine.
  • Preheat the waffle iron fully for crispy edges and even cooking.
  • Measure batter precisely, about ½ cup per waffle, to prevent overflow and uneven waffles.
  • Use full-fat Greek yogurt for creamier texture and richer flavor.
  • Let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to activate baking powder and improve fluffiness.
