Sweetheart Heart Shaped Waffles (Printable)

Fluffy, golden waffles shaped like hearts, ideal for cozy breakfasts or special brunches.

# What You’ll Need:

01 - 2 cups all-purpose flour

02 - 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

03 - 2 teaspoons baking powder

04 - 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt

06 - 2 large eggs

07 - 1 3/4 cups whole milk

08 - 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled

09 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

10 - Fresh berries

11 - Whipped cream

12 - Maple syrup

13 - Powdered sugar

01 - Preheat your heart-shaped waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions until ready for use.

02 - In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well incorporated.

03 - In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then whisk in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

04 - Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are acceptable.

05 - Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.

06 - Pour about 1/3 cup of batter into the center of the waffle iron, adjusting based on your iron's capacity.

07 - Close the lid and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, or until waffles are golden brown and crisp.

08 - Carefully remove the cooked waffles and repeat with the remaining batter until all waffles are prepared.

09 - Serve warm with fresh berries, whipped cream, maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar as desired.

01 -

These waffles strike that perfect balance between crispy edges and pillowy soft centers
The heart shape somehow makes breakfast taste better, science be damned

02 -

Overmixed batter produces tough waffles, so embrace the lumps and stop folding early
Letting the batter rest for five minutes before cooking makes for fluffier results

03 -

Separate your eggs, whip the whites, and fold them in last for restaurant level fluffiness
Let finished waffles cool directly on a wire rack instead of stacking to maintain crunch
