Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1.5 cups mochi flour
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter

Equipment

  • Standard waffle iron (preferably Belgian style)
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Rubber spatula
  • Fork or small whisk for beating eggs
  • Non-stick spray or melted butter for greasing

Method
 

  1. Preheat the waffle iron for at least 5 minutes until fully heated.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together mochi flour, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until light and frothy, about 1 minute.
  4. Add whole milk, vanilla extract, and melted butter to the beaten eggs and whisk until fully incorporated.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk gently until just combined; small lumps are fine.
  6. Spray or brush the preheated waffle iron with non-stick spray or melted butter.
  7. Pour about 1/3 cup of batter into the waffle iron, close the lid, and cook for 2 minutes or until golden brown and steam subsides.
  8. Remove the waffle with a fork or tongs and place on a wire rack; repeat cooking with remaining batter.

Notes

Serve waffles immediately while the exterior is still crispy to maintain texture contrast.
