Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups nonfat plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Mix Wet Ingredients: Whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until smooth and well combined.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and kosher salt evenly.
  3. Fold Ingredients: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a flat spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the waffles light and fluffy.
  4. Preheat Waffle Iron: Heat your waffle iron until it is hot. Spray the cooking surface generously with oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook Waffles: Pour enough batter into the center of the waffle iron to cover the surface evenly. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the waffles are golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Repeat and Maintain: Continue cooking the remaining batter in the same manner, spraying oil between batches to keep waffles from sticking.
  7. Storage and Reheating: Store cooked waffles in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat using a toaster or toaster oven, and you can toast them directly from frozen for convenience.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to ensure light, fluffy waffles.
  • Spraying the waffle iron with oil between batches helps prevent sticking.
  • Waffles can be frozen and reheated conveniently without losing texture.
  • Use nonfat Greek yogurt to keep the waffles lighter and reduce fat content.
  • Adjust sugar quantity if you prefer sweeter waffles.
