Buttermilk Waffles
Waking up is easy with these delicious and fluffy buttermilk waffles. You can have these ready in less than 30 minutes start to finish. You can even prepare the batter the night before and keep it in the fridge for a real no fuss breakfast. These waffles are great on their own with some maple syrup or you can dress them up with fresh berries, Nutella, bananas, or whatever your hungry heart desires. Check out the recipe below!
Ingredients
- 2 cups buttermilk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted (1 stick)

- ¼ cup brown sugar (can use regular if you want)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs, beaten
Method
- Combine buttermilk, melted butter, beaten eggs, and vanilla in a mixing bowl
- In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt
- Form a well in the center of the dry ingredients and slowly pour in the wet ingredients until a smooth batter forms
- Heat waffle iron and spray with non-stick cooking spray
