Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. If desired, fold in the chocolate chips.
- Lightly grease the waffle iron with non-stick spray or oil.
- Pour the recommended amount of batter onto the preheated waffle iron and close the lid. Cook until the waffles are crisp and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Carefully remove the waffles and serve immediately with your favorite toppings such as whipped cream, fresh berries, or syrup.
Notes
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
- Waffles can be frozen and reheated in a toaster for a quick breakfast option.
