Chocolate chip waffles are hot, crispy and fluffy homemade waffles packed with gooey chocolate chips. It's easy to make in one bowl and are perfect for an easy, extra special breakfast.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Whisk in the melted and slightly cooled butter, milk and vanilla together until smooth and well combined. Whisk the dry ingredients with the wet until just combined with some lumps. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Rest the batter at room temperature while the waffle iron preheats. The longer the batter rests, the thicker and fluffier the waffles. To store for longer, cover the batter and transfer to the fridge for at least 30 minutes and up to overnight.
Preheat the waffle iron to your desired heat setting. I recommend a heat setting of around 3 or “crisp." Lightly grease the waffle iron using a non stick spray.
Using ½ cup (120 ml) or ¾ cup (180 ml) measuring cup, pour the chocolate chip batter onto the preheated waffle iron. Close the lid, pressing down gently to encourage the batter to spread a bit. Wait for the waffle maker to turn from red to green to indicate the waffle is done cooking. Gently lift up the lid.
When it’s time to serve the waffles with chocolate chips, top the waffles with more chocolate chips and your desired toppings. I love mine with sliced bananas, a light dusting of powdered sugar and a drizzle of maple syrup.
