Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour bleached or unbleached
  • 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
  • 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt or a generous pinch
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup half and half can also use 1 1/4 cup whole milk and skip the 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Butter for waffle iron

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, granulated white sugar and salt until thoroughly combined.
  • In the same bowl, add the egg, vegetable oil, half and half and water. If you are not using half and half and water, use 1 1/4 cup of milk to substitute. Feel free to also add vanilla extract but it's not necessary.
  • Fold in the wet ingredients until the batter is fully incorporated. Whisk out any lumps until the batter is smooth. Note: the baking powder will activate after a few minutes, making the batter thicker and airy-er. Stir the batter periodically to keep it at the right consistency. You can also add water to thin it out if it's too fluffy for your liking.
  • Butter a waffle iron and pour the batter in, until 3/4 of the iron is full. Close the waffle iron and wait until the waffle is fully cooked and golden brown on the outside. Repeat with all of the waffles.
