Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 1 and 3/4 cups buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your waffle maker on medium-high heat and set your oven to 200°F (93°C) to keep finished waffles warm.
  2. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet and put it in the warm oven.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, and brown sugar until smooth.
  5. Whisk in the buttermilk and vanilla extract until combined.
  6. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and whisk gently, leaving small lumps.
  7. Lightly grease the waffle maker and pour about 1/3 cup of batter into each well.
  8. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes according to your waffle maker’s instructions.
  9. Transfer cooked waffles to the warm oven rack.
  10. Serve immediately with toppings of your choice, or freeze leftovers for up to 3 months.

Notes

Let melted butter cool before mixing with eggs to prevent scrambling. Store cooled waffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
