Ingredients

- 2 large eggs
- 1 3/4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter

How to Make Stacked Waffles with Maple Syrup
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron if necessary. Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the preheated waffle iron, following the manufacturer’s guidelines for portion size.
- Close the lid and cook until the waffles are golden brown and crisp, usually about 4-5 minutes, depending on your waffle iron.
- Carefully remove the waffles and stack them on a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the stacked waffles warm, drizzled generously with maple syrup.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure your waffle iron is fully preheated to achieve that perfect crispiness.
- For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
- Avoid overmixing the batter; this keeps the waffles light and airy.
Easy Variations
- Add chocolate chips or blueberries to the batter for a fruity twist.
- Substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour for a heartier texture.
- Top with whipped cream, fresh fruits, or nuts for added flavor and presentation.
What to Serve With It
- Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side
- Crispy bacon or sausage links for a savory contrast
- Greek yogurt for a creamy addition
- A sprinkle of powdered sugar for an elegant touch
