Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 ½ cups flour

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 large egg

  • ¼ cup sugar

  • ¼ cup salted butter, softened, plus more for serving

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 cup half-and-half

  • ½ cup buttermilk

  • cooking spray

  • pure maple syrup, and/or chocolate chips, for serving

Directions

  1. Whisk together flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a bowl.

  2. Whisk together egg, sugar, butter, and vanilla in a separate large bowl until mixture is smooth. Whisk in half-and-half and buttermilk. Add flour mixture; stir until just combined and a few lumps remain. (Do not overmix.) Chill, covered, at least 1 hour or up to overnight.

  3. Preheat waffle iron to medium-high; lightly coat with cooking spray. Pour about 2/3 cup batter onto waffle iron. Cook until golden and crisp on edges, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate; keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter.

  4. Serve waffles with maple syrup, chocolate chips, and/or additional butter.
