Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 3/4 cups buttermilk
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup chopped pecans

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; lumps are okay.
4. Fold in the chopped pecans.
5. Preheat your waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions. Lightly grease the waffle iron with cooking spray or melted butter.
6. Spoon the batter onto the preheated waffle iron, spreading it evenly. Close the lid and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
7. Transfer the cooked waffles to a wire rack to cool slightly, allowing steam to escape and the waffles to become crispier.
8. Serve the nutty pecan waffles warm with your favorite maple syrup and a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
