Preheat your waffle iron and cook waffles according to manufacturer’s instructions. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Note: When I made these waffles, the recipe made 14 waffles in my iron. Your number of waffles may vary depending on make and model. Leftover waffles can be refrigerated for the next day or frozen if necessary. Just pop frozen waffles in your toaster to thaw and warm. Serve as usual.
