Daddy’S Special Waffles

Directions

1. 1
   ["1. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.", "2. Pour the melted butter into a medium mixing bowl (an 8-cup Pyrex measuring bowl works great because you can melt the butter in it to start.) Whisk the eggs, one at a time, until thoroughly beaten. CAUTION: Be sure the melted butter is not too hot, we don't want the eggs to cook. Yet.", "3. Whisk in the sugar and vanilla.", "4. Drizzle in the milk and whisk until combined.", "5. Add the dry mixture, all at once, to the wet mixture*, and stir to combine, but don't over beat. Really, don't worry about the lumps. They cook out.", "6. Set aside for a few minutes to prep the waffle iron. The rest will let the baking powder start to do it's thang.", "7. Plug your waffle iron to preheat it. Set it at the level of your choice. Frankly, these things only need two settings: off and full-on.", "8. Check you iron's owner's manual (you still have it, right? right?) to determine the batter-capacity. Ours holds one cup of batter, so to make it easier, we employ our 1/4 C. ladle (also great for pouring pancakes and ladling, well, ladle-y things).", "9. When the iron tells you it's ready, and most models will, load it up and clamp down the lid and wait for the \"all done\"" signal
