Instructions
In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Add the milk, melted butter, vanilla and egg (if using) to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth.
Lightly oil and preheat the waffle iron (I use a high setting for ultimate crisping)
Fill the heated iron with batter according to your manufacturer's instructions.
Cook the waffles until deep golden brown and crisp.
Serve immediately with jam, fruit and whipped cream or keep waffles crisp in a warm oven until serving.
Notes
Tips for Success:
The batter can be mixed ahead of time and stored covered in the refrigerator for several days.
It is best to just cook as many waffles as you will be eating in the moment to keep them crispy.
If desired, waffles may be cooked and frozen. To reheat, put the frozen waffles in a toaster or conventional oven set at 350 degrees until crispy and hot.
