Description
Delicious and fluffy chocolate chip waffles perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2–1/4 cups flour
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- 1–1/4 cups whole milk
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons light brown sugar (lightly packed, or granulated sugar)
- 4 large eggs (room temperature)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted, room temperature)
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
- Syrup (see note 1)
Instructions
- Get all the wet ingredients to room temperature before you begin (see note 2). Whisk together milk and vinegar and set aside for 5 minutes to slightly curdle.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add all the wet ingredients except the butter. Whisk until combined. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the melted butter. Whisk until smooth. Don’t overmix. Gently stir in chocolate chips. Let the batter sit for 10 minutes (see note 3).
- Preheat your nonstick waffle maker according to the model’s instructions. Once heated, add 1/3 cup of batter per cavity. Cook until each waffle is nicely crisped on both sides and cooked through in the center.
- Keep cooked waffles warm in the oven while finishing the batch (see note 4) or serve immediately with your choice of toppings.
Notes
- Note 1: Serve with your favorite syrup.
- Note 2: Allowing wet ingredients to reach room temperature helps improve texture.
- Note 3: Resting the batter allows it to thicken and helps with fluffiness.
- Note 4: To keep waffles warm, place them in a low oven while cooking the remaining batter.
