Description
Light and fluffy waffles made with protein-rich Greek yogurt for a tender interior and crisp golden exterior. These quick homemade waffles are satisfying, versatile, and perfect for busy mornings or relaxed weekend breakfasts.
Ingredients
1.5 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tbsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp kosher salt
Instructions
- Whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly distributed.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix just until the batter comes together, being careful not to overmix.
- Preheat the waffle iron and lightly spray it with oil once hot.
- Pour batter into the center of the waffle iron and cook for about 2 minutes, or until the waffle is golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, lightly spraying the waffle iron with oil between each waffle to prevent sticking.
Notes
Add chocolate chips or blueberries to the batter for a sweeter variation.
Mix in a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra warmth and flavor.
Substitute part of the all purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier waffle.
You can replace part of the milk with buttermilk for extra tenderness and tang.
Store leftover waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Freeze waffles in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
Reheat in a toaster or toaster oven until warm and crisp.
Keep cooked waffles warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven while finishing the remaining batter.
