Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep the Strawberries:

Start by slicing your fresh strawberries. If you prefer a sweeter topping, toss them in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Set aside while you make the waffle batter so they can release their juices.

2. Mix the Dry Ingredients:

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. This ensures the waffles have a nice rise and a perfectly sweet flavor.

3. Combine Wet Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter (or oil), and vanilla extract. Stir until everything is well combined.

4. Mix the Batter:

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking as you go. Stir until just combined—be careful not to overmix, as you want the waffles to be light and fluffy.

5. Preheat the Waffle Iron:

Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Lightly grease it with a bit of oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.

6. Cook the Waffles:

Pour about ½ cup of batter onto the waffle iron (depending on its size), and spread it evenly. Close the lid and cook the waffles until they are golden brown and crispy, typically 4-5 minutes.

7. Serve with Strawberries:

Once the waffles are cooked, top them with your sweetened strawberries and a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra indulgence.

Most Secret Tips for the Perfect Strawberry Waffles

Use Fresh Strawberries: Fresh, ripe strawberries add the best flavor to these waffles. Frozen strawberries can be used in a pinch, but fresh ones will give you the brightest, juiciest results.

Don’t Overmix the Batter: Overmixing can lead to tough waffles. Stir the batter until just combined to keep them light and fluffy.

Customize Your Toppings: You can add more than just strawberries! Consider other toppings like blueberries, bananas, nuts, or even chocolate chips.

Strawberry waffles are an easy, delicious, and versatile breakfast that anyone can enjoy. The combination of crispy waffles with fresh strawberries makes this recipe a winner for weekend mornings or special occasions. Now that you know how to make them, go ahead and treat yourself to a batch of these sweet and satisfying waffles!
