instructions
    1

    Start by preheating your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually around 5 minutes.

    2

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt until combined.

    3

    In a separate bowl, mix 1.5 cups of milk, 1 egg, 1/4 cup of vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth.

    4

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Avoid over-mixing.

    5

    Once your waffle iron is hot, lightly grease it with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.

    6

    Pour an appropriate amount of batter (about 1 cup, varies by waffle iron) into the center of the waffle iron and close the lid.

    7

    Cook according to the manufacturer's directions, typically for about 5 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and crispy.

    8

    While the waffles are cooking, prepare your mixed berries by rinsing them gently and slicing strawberries if desired.

    9

    Once your waffles are done, remove them carefully and stack on plates.

    10

    Top each waffle with a generous amount of mixed berries and a dollop of whipped cream.

How to be creative
  • Incorporate different fruit toppings like banana slices or kiwi for added variety.
  • Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for extra flavor.
  • Experiment by using chocolate chips in the batter for a chocolatey twist.
Important Tips
  • Ensure to measure your flour correctly by spooning it into the measuring cup and leveling it off with a knife.
  • Do not over-mix the batter; a few lumps are perfectly fine for lighter waffles.
  • Keep your completed waffles warm in a low oven (around 200°F) if you're making multiple batches.
