Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour or half whole wheat flour
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 3/4 cups milk dairy or plant-based
  • 1/4 cup melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 5 –10 drops blue food coloring or natural blueberry/spirulina

Equipment

  • Waffle maker or waffle iron
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk or electric mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Optional: blender for smooth batter

Method
 

  1. Preheat waffle iron and lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk wet ingredients: eggs, milk, melted butter, vanilla.
  4. Slowly mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients until smooth. Fold in blue coloring evenly.
  5. Let batter rest 5–10 minutes for fluffier waffles.
  6. Pour batter onto waffle iron (½–¾ cup per waffle). Cook 4–6 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Carefully remove waffles and serve immediately with toppings of choice.

Notes

  • Use natural coloring (blueberries, spirulina) for a healthier alternative.
  • For vegan waffles, replace eggs with flax eggs and use plant-based milk.
  • Store leftover waffles in the fridge for 2–3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
  • Try creative toppings: fruits, whipped cream, syrup, chocolate drizzle, or sprinkles.
