Ingredients

For the Dry Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp granulated sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp salt

For the Wet Ingredients

• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups buttermilk
• ¼ cup melted butter (plus more for serving)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Toppings

• 1 tbsp butter per waffle
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• Powdered sugar, for dusting
• Optional: maple syrup, lemon zest, or whipped cream

Instructions

1. Turn it on while you mix the batter so it’s hot and ready.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla until combined.
4. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined. A few lumps are fine—don’t overmix.
5. Lightly grease waffle iron. Pour batter into the center (about ½ to ¾ cup depending on your waffle maker). Cook according to manufacturer’s instructions, until golden brown and crisp.
6. Top each waffle with a pat of butter, a handful of fresh blueberries, and a light dusting of powdered sugar. Serve with maple syrup on the side if desired.

Notes

No buttermilk? Use 2 cups milk + 2 tbsp lemon juice or white vinegar as a substitute

Want crispier waffles? Let the cooked waffle sit in the waffle maker (off heat) for 1 minute before removing

Add a touch of lemon zest to the batter for a citrus twist

Swap blueberries for raspberries, strawberries, or a berry compote
