Waffle Maker

Ingredients

2 cups all purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons baking powder
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1½ cups milk
2 large eggs lightly beaten to break up the yolks
6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup fresh blueberries
cooking spray for the waffle iron

Instructions

Combine the dry ingredients. In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking powder, and sugar, and whisk to combine.
Add the wet ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Then, whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until incorporated.
Rest the batter. Set aside and let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Heat your waffle iron. While the waffle iron is heating, fold the blueberries into the batter.
Cook the waffles. Coat the waffle iron with cooking spray, then drop about ⅓ to ½ cup of the batter onto it. Cook the waffles for 3-4 minutes, or until done. Transfer the cooked waffles to a wire rack to keep them crisp while you work on the remaining batter.
Serve. Serve the blueberry waffles warm with extra blueberries on the side, if desired, topped with maple syrup and pats of butter.

Notes

Cook the waffles until the steam stops coming from the iron.
You can fold the blueberries into the batter or leave them out altogether; it's completely up to you. As the waffles cook, the blueberries soften and become almost jam-like, adding little pockets of sweet blueberry flavor throughout.
For extra flavor, add almond extract, about 1 teaspoon.
