Steps
Preheat the waffle iron. (If you can choose settings, I recommend a darker or higher heat setting for a crispier waffle.)
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir together just until combined.
Grease the hot waffle iron with butter or cooking spray. Add about 1/3 cup of batter for each waffle to the hot waffle iron. (The amount will depend on the size of your waffle maker so feel free to experiment with how much you add.)
Cook until golden brown. Place on a wire rack until ready to serve so they stay crisp. Serve hot with maple syrup and butter or your favorite toppings.

Reviews
Veronica on 2026-09-19 (2 stars): Usually make the sourdough waffles from PK, this one was a miss for me. The batter was extremely thin, even with using a kitchen scale to accurately measure each ingredient. The flavor was great, but the ingredient ratio was just off.
Won’t be making again :(
Lynnette Roberts on 2026-09-19 (5 stars): I finally found a very good waffle mix.
They were delicious and fluffy. I’m now making a container of the dry mixture to have on hand and add the wet ingredients when I get ready to make them
Jackie on 2026-09-14 (5 stars): I actually swapped out the flour for king Arthur gluten free flour, 1 for 1, and they still turned out great! Very happy cause it doesn't always work out.
Liz on 2026-09-13 (5 stars): I’ve been trying different highly-rated waffle recipes online and this one is by far the best! Perfect as written. Also recommend adding about 1.5tsp of pumpkin spice now that it’s fall :)
