These waffles are airy, golden, and delicately crisp thanks to a unique blend of ingredients. The batter begins with eggs, all-purpose flour, and cornstarch for structure and tenderness. Baking powder, baking soda, and salt ensure lift and balance, while 2% milk, canola oil, vanilla extract, white vinegar, and sugar create a flavorful, smooth base.

The secret ingredient—chilled club soda—adds lightness and a bubbly texture, resulting in waffles with a crisp exterior and soft interior. Serve with butter and maple syrup for a classic finish or dress them up with tropical toppings.

Perfect for brunch, breakfast-for-dinner, or a weekend treat.
