I was working late last night debugging the lingering failure in the bug 419759. Sometime after midnight, I had one of those ideas that really only makes sense when you’re on the wrong side of midnight: I made some waffle batter. The payoff came this morning.
If you’ve never had a waffle made with a nice, yeast-based batter, and you happen to own a waffle iron…OMG, you’ve got to try it.
The only thing I can possibly add to the recipe is this: because they are so light and fluffy AND crispy, the batter goes a long way, yielding more waffles than even a gluttonous man like myself can consume in a single sitting, even when assisted by a very pregnant wife. If you want to freeze the leftovers, it’s totally doable, but if you want them to stay crispy (which is also totally doable), lay the excess waffles out in a single layer on a flat surface until they cool, and then freeze them straight away. Stacking the fresh, hot waffles at any point will cause them to soggify by trapping the escaping steam.
Enjoy!
