This easy waffles recipe is perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch. Simply mix all the ingredients and pour ½ coup of batter into the waffle maker. Leftovers freeze great and make for a great, quick breakfast mid-week.

Directions for easy waffles

Turn on and heat up the waffle iron.
In a mixer bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Turn the mixer on low and slowly pour in the milk and oil. Scrape down the sides if needed and then add the eggs, one at a time. Turn the mixer up a little and add the vanilla extract. Scrape it all around to be sure there's nothing stuck on the sides or on the bottom and then you're ready to pour the mix into a hot waffle iron.

Pour about ½ cup of batter for each side of the waffle. Waffle irons vary, you can see here with mine, I have a very low-tech, inexpensive one. I pour in the batter, close the lid, then immediately flip it over so the batter cooks evenly. My waffle iron has two lights, green and red. Green means it's ready for batter to be poured in and then it will turn green again when the waffle is ready. Note that you don't want to completely fill the compartments with waffle mix. You need room for the waffle to expand or else it will leak out the sides.
