Ingredients

  • tablespoon double-acting baking powder 
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking soda 
  • large eggs 
  • cups flour all-purpose
  • 0.8 cup powdered buttermilk dried
  • 0.8 teaspoon salt 
  • tablespoons sugar 
  • tablespoons butter unsalted melted
  • 16 servings vegetable oil 
  • cups water 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • oven
  • whisk
  • ziploc bags
  • waffle iron

Directions

  1. Sift together flour, dried powdered buttermilk, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Refrigerate this "from-scratch mix" in plastic storage bags until you’re hungry for waffles. (It will keep for 1 month.)
  3. On a waffle morning, whisk eggs in a large bowl until blended, then whisk in water and melted butter.
  4. Whisk dry ingredients into liquid mixture just until smooth.
  5. Brush a preheated waffle iron lightly with vegetable oil and spoon batter—about 2 cups for 4 waffles—in iron, spreading quickly.
  6. Cook waffles according to manufacturer’s instructions, transferring as cooked to rack of a preheated 250°F oven to keep warm. (If you don’t intend to use the entire mix at once, divide dry-ingredient mixture into thirds and transfer to 3 sealable plastic bags to refrigerate. You will need 1 egg, 1 cup water, and 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter for each bag.)
