Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 cups Bisquick baking mix
  • 1 3/4 cups milk whole or 2%
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter plus more for greasing iron
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Equipment

  • Waffle iron
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Pastry brush

Method
 

  1. Preheat the waffle iron for 3–5 minutes, or until it reaches full temperature.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups Bisquick, 1 tablespoon sugar, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk 1 3/4 cups milk, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir just until no dry streaks remain; lumps are fine.
  5. Let the batter rest for 1 minute while lightly brushing the waffle iron grids with melted butter.
  6. Pour about 1/2 cup batter onto the center of the hot iron (about 3/4 full), close, and cook for 3–4 minutes until steam stops and the waffle is golden brown.
  7. Use a spatula to remove the waffle and place it on a wire rack or serving plate.
  8. Repeat greasing the iron lightly and cooking remaining batter, stirring the batter briefly between waffles.
  9. Serve waffles hot with your favorite toppings such as butter, maple syrup, or fresh fruit.

Notes

For extra-crispy waffles, reduce milk to 1 1/2 cups and cook each waffle 1–2 minutes longer.
