There’s nothing quite like waking up to the smell of warm, golden waffles on a weekend morning.

These Fluffy Belgian Waffles are tall, crisp on the outside, and tender on the inside – everything you want in a breakfast classic.

Whether you’re topping them with fresh berries, syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar, this recipe delivers perfect results every time.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Extra Fluffy Texture – Thanks to a perfect blend of baking powder and melted butter.

Crispy Golden Exterior – Every bite has a satisfying crunch.

Customizable Toppings – Pile on whipped cream, fruit, or even fried chicken.

Freezer-Friendly – Make a big batch and store extras for busy mornings.

Easy to Make – No fancy techniques or ingredients required.

What You’ll Need (Ingredient Highlights)

All-Purpose Flour (2 cups) – Gives the waffles a sturdy yet tender structure.

Granulated Sugar (4 tbsp) – Lightly sweetens the batter.

Baking Powder (4 tsp) – The secret to tall, fluffy waffles.

Salt (½ tsp) – Balances the sweetness and enhances flavor.

Eggs (2) – Help bind and lift the batter.

Milk (1½ cups) – 2% is ideal, but whole milk works too.

Unsalted Butter (6 tbsp) – Adds richness and crisp edges.

Vanilla Bean Paste (1 tsp) – Adds a depth of vanilla flavor (or use vanilla extract).

Pro Tips Before You Start

Don’t Overmix – A few lumps in the batter are totally fine and actually help keep waffles fluffy.

Preheat Your Waffle Iron – A hot iron ensures even browning and crispy edges.

Keep Waffles Warm – Place cooked waffles on a baking sheet in a 200°F oven while you finish the batch.

Freeze Extras – Cool completely, then freeze in a single layer and store in a zip-top bag.

How to Make Fluffy Belgian Waffles

Step 1: Preheat the Waffle Iron

Start by heating your waffle maker.

Spray lightly with nonstick spray right before adding batter to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Whisk to blend evenly. Then make a well in the center.

Step 3: Whisk the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk eggs and milk together.

Add melted butter and vanilla bean paste or extract, and whisk until combined.

Step 4: Combine and Mix

Pour the wet mixture into the well of the dry ingredients.

Gently whisk or stir just until everything is incorporated.

Do not overmix – a lumpy batter is ideal!

Step 5: Cook the Waffles

Scoop batter into the center of your preheated waffle iron.

Cook according to your machine’s instructions, usually 3–5 minutes, until golden and crispy. Repeat with remaining batter.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Serve immediately with your favorite toppings or keep warm in the oven until ready to eat.

What to Serve It With

Classic Maple Syrup – A no-fail topping.

Fresh Berries & Whipped Cream – Adds freshness and color.

Nutella or Peanut Butter – For a decadent treat.

Fried Chicken – A savory Southern twist.

Greek Yogurt & Honey – A healthier, creamy topping option.

Variations / Substitutions

Use Buttermilk – For tangy depth and even fluffier texture.

Add Mix-Ins – Like chocolate chips, blueberries, or chopped nuts.

Make It Dairy-Free – Use almond milk and vegan butter.

Gluten-Free Option – Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.

Lower Sugar – Cut the sugar to 2 tbsp or use a sugar substitute.

Storage & Leftovers

Fridge – Store cooked waffles in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Freezer – Freeze in a single layer, then store in a zip-top bag for up to 3 months.

Reheat – Use a toaster, toaster oven, or air fryer to re-crisp frozen waffles.

FAQs

What makes Belgian waffles different?
Belgian waffles are thicker and have deeper pockets than regular waffles, making them ideal for holding syrup and toppings.

Can I use a regular waffle iron?
Yes, the recipe works in any waffle maker, but the texture is best in a Belgian-style iron.

Why are my waffles soggy?
Make sure your waffle iron is fully preheated and don’t stack cooked waffles – keep them warm in the oven instead.

Can I freeze the batter?
It’s better to freeze the cooked waffles rather than the raw batter.

Final Thoughts

These Fluffy Belgian Waffles are everything a weekend breakfast should be — warm, golden, and just a little indulgent.

With a crisp outer layer and soft, pillowy inside, they’re the kind of waffles that make you want to skip the diner and stay home.

Whether you’re serving a crowd or saving them for weekday mornings, this recipe is one to keep in your rotation.
