Step-by-Step Instructions for Fluffy and Golden Waffles
  1. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically about 5 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In another bowl, beat together the wet ingredients: milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until frothy.
  4. Gently pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold together until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Lightly coat the preheated waffle iron with melted butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  6. Pour an appropriate amount of batter onto the center of the waffle iron, usually about ½ to ¾ cup.
  7. Cook the waffles for 3 to 5 minutes until golden brown, watching for the steam to reduce.
  8. Carefully remove the waffles from the iron and serve immediately with toppings of your choice.
