Step 1

Preheat a waffle maker to high heat. Set the oven on 200 degrees F. Set a baking sheet, with a rack on it, in the oven to hold and warm the waffles.

Step 2

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk well.

Step 3

Then mix in the milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla. Stir until the mixture is very smooth.

Step 4

Once the waffle maker is very hot, add approximately ½ cup batter (for a large Belgium-style waffle) and cook for 3 ½ minutes undisturbed.

Step 5

Open and remove the waffle when the exterior is golden-brown. Move the waffle to the warm oven and repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 6

Once all the waffles are cooked, let them rest in the oven for another 5 minutes to continue to dry and crisp.
