If you can plan ahead, these are the best waffles by far. There are many variations, but the important thing is using yeast and letting the batter sit overnight. 2 c all purpose flour 1 tsp yeast 1/2 tsp salt 2 c milk Mix the above ingredients, cover, and let sit overnight on the counter or in the fridge if your kitchen is much over 70 degrees. The next morning stir in: 1 beaten egg 6 TB melted butter Make waffles according to your waffle iron's instructions. I recommend using the highest temperature setting to get a nice crisp exterior. Unfortunately some waffle irons do not get hot enough to do this.
