Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 240 grams
  • 1/2 cup powdered buttermilk 64 grams (read about buttermilk powder here)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup sour cream 113.5 grams
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil 59.15 ml
  • 1 1/4 cup club soda 295.74 ml

Instructions

  • Set your oven to warm (or 200 degrees Fahrenheit). Set a wire cooling rack (like what you use to cool cookies) on a rimmed baking sheet and put it in the oven. Preheat your waffle maker.
  • In a large bowl whisk the flour, buttermilk powder, sugar, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
    2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup powdered buttermilk, 1 tablespoon sugar, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • In a medium bowl combine the sour cream, eggs, vanilla, and oil. Whisk until smooth. Gently stir in the club soda.
    1/2 cup sour cream, 2 eggs, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1 1/4 cup club soda
  • Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Be careful not to over-mix. It is okay if there are some streaks of flour and lumps left in the batter.
  • Cook the waffles according to the instructions of your waffle maker. (For a 6.5 inch waffle maker, you will need 3/4 cup batter per waffle. Place each finished waffle on the warmed cooling rack in the oven to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Please note that if you use the waffle maker linked here and above in the post, you will get 5 six and a half inch waffles.
