Yeasted Waffles
YEASTED WAFFLES
Serves 4.
Requires 12 hours of resting.
1 3/4 c milk
8 tbs salted butter (1 stick)
2 c all purpose flour
1 tbs sugar
1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast (less than 1pkg)
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
Heat butter and milk in a saucepan over low heat (or microwave on
low) just until butter is melted. Mixture should be warm to the
touch. If not, let it cool, stirring ocasionally.
Mix flour, sugar and yeast in a large bowl.
Mix eggs and vanilla in a small bowl.
Mix butter and milk into dry ingredients, then mix in eggs and vanilla.
Cover bowl with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator overnight.
When you remove the batter from the refrigerator it should have
expanded to 1 1/2 - 2 times its original size. Whisk batter and it will
deflate. Make waffles as you normally would.

Best. Waffles. Ever.
All of the good qualities of waffles, with the additional fluffiness and subtle yeast taste of leavened bread. Delicious without any toppings.
Absolutely worth the additional preparation time.
This recipe is delicious, but you’re missing a critical ingredient: Salt. 1 tsp. salt.
