These waffles are light, fluffy, and perfect for a delightful breakfast or brunch.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
Sift the dry ingredients together for a smoother batter.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and melted butter. Then, add the buttermilk and mix until combined.
Ensure the butter is not too hot to prevent cooking the eggs.
Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
A properly preheated waffle iron ensures even cooking.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Overmixing can make the waffles dense, so mix just until combined.
Let the batter rest for five minutes to allow the ingredients to hydrate.
This step helps achieve a better texture in the waffles.
Lightly spray the waffle iron with cooking spray and pour in an appropriate amount of batter. Cook until golden brown and crisp.
Avoid opening the waffle iron too early to ensure the waffles cook properly.
Serve the waffles warm with your favorite toppings, such as syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
